Musings on the fragility of life from "summary" of Selected Poems Of Gulzar by Gulazāra
Life, delicate as a flame quivering in the wind, leaves us pondering its transient nature. Like a passing cloud in the vast expanse of the sky, life drifts by, ephemeral and unpredictable. We are mere travelers in this journey, uncertain of the path ahead, treading softly on the fragile thread of existence.
Every breath we take, every heartbeat, reminds us of the fleeting nature of life. We hold on to moments, trying to capture them in our memories, but they slip through our fingers like sand, leaving only traces of their passing. The fragility of life is a constant companion, a silent reminder of our mortality.
In the tapestry of life, we are but tiny threads, woven together in a delicate dance of existence. Each thread is precious, each moment fleeting, as we navigate the labyrinth of time. We are confronted with the impermanence of all things, the inevitability of change, and the transience of life itself.
As we contemplate the fragility of life, we are filled with a sense of awe and wonder at the beauty and complexity of our existence. We are reminded of the preciousness of each moment, the importance of cherishing the present, and the need to embrace life in all its imperfections.
In the midst of life's uncertainties, we find solace in the knowledge that we are not alone in our musings on the fragility of life. Countless others have pondered the same questions, sought the same answers, and wrestled with the same fears. And in this shared journey, we find comfort, connection, and a sense of belonging in the vast tapestry of life.
