To be able to look back upon ones life in satisfaction, is to live twice

The veil that clouds your eyes shall be lifted by the hands that wove it, And the clay that fills your ears shall be pierced by those fingers that kneaded it.
And you shall see.
And you shall hear.

Yes, there is a Nirvanah; it is leading your sheep to a green pasture, and in putting your child to sleep, and in writing the last line of your poem

Your living is determined not so much by what life brings to you as by the attitude you bring to life; not so much by what happens to you as by the way your mind looks at what happens.

Life without love is like a tree without blossoms or fruit. -Kahlil Gibran.

Your daily life is your temple and your religion. When you enter into it take with you your all.
