When Death comes and whispers to me, Your days are ended, let me say to him, I have lived in love and not in mere time. He will ask, Will your songs remain? I shall say, I know not, but this I know, that often when I sang I found my eternity. Rabindranath Tagore

Like the meeting of the seagulls and the waves we meet and come near. The seagulls fly off, the waves roll away and we depart. Rabindranath Tagore
