Embrace the wonder of being alive from "summary" of Gitanjali by Rabindranath Tagore,William Radice
Oh my mind, let us embrace the wonder of being alive! Let us revel in the beauty of each moment, in the joy of each breath. Let us not be bound by the shackles of the past or the uncertainties of the future, but let us dwell in the present, in the here and now. For what is life but a fleeting moment, a delicate dance of light and shadow? Let us not waste this precious gift on trivialities and worries, but let us embrace it fully, with all our hearts and souls. Let us see the world with new eyes, with a sense of wonder and gratitude for all that surrounds us. Let us not be weighed down by the burdens of the world, but let us soar like birds in the sky, free and unfettered. Let us rejoice in the simple pleasures of life – in the laughter of children, in the beauty of a flower, in the warmth of the sun on our skin. Let us be like the river that flows endlessly, embracing all that comes its way with grace and serenity. Let us not be afraid to feel deeply, to love fiercely, to live passionately. Let us embrace the wonder of being alive with all our being, with all our essence. Let us be like the stars that shine brightly in the night sky, illuminating the darkness with their brilliance. Let us be like the moon that waxes and wanes, ever-changing yet constant in its beauty.

Let us be like the tree that reaches towards the sky, rooted in the earth yet reaching towards the heavens. Let us be like the wind that whispers through the trees, carrying with it the promise of a new day. Oh my mind, let us embrace the wonder of being alive with all that we are, for in doing so we truly live. Let us be like the poet who sees beauty in the mundane, who finds magic in the ordinary. Let us be like the artist who creates beauty out of chaos, who brings light to the darkest corners. Let us embrace the wonder of being alive, for in doing so we embrace life itself. Let us be like the river that flows endlessly, embracing all that comes its way with grace and serenity. Let us be like the stars that shine brightly in the night sky, illuminating the darkness with their brilliance. Let us be like the moon that w
