Living is easy with eyes closed...

FROM 'LIFE IS A DREAM'

by: Pedro Calderón de la Barca (1600-1681)

We live, while we see the sun,
Where life and dreams are as one;
And living has taught me this,
Man dreams the life that is his,
Until his living is done.
The king dreams he is king, and he lives
In the deceit of a king,
Commanding and governing;
And all the praise he receives
Is written in wind, and leaves
A little dust on the way
When death ends all with a breath.
Where then is the gain of the throne,
That shall perish and not be known
In the other dream that is death?
Dreams the rich man of riches and fears,
The fears that his riches breed;
The poor man dreams of his need,
And all his sorrows and tears;
Dreams he that prospers with years,
Dreams he that feigns and foregoes,
Dreams he that rails on his foes;
And in all the world, I see,
Man dreams whatever he be,
And his own dream no man knows.
And I too dream and behold,
I dream I am bound with chains,
And I dreamed that these present pains
Were fortunate ways of old.
What is life? a tale that is told;
What is life? a frenzy extreme,
A shadow of things that seem;
And the greatest good is but small,
That all life is a dream to all,
And that dreams themselves are a dream.

Youth is eternal, yet Beauty is fleeting...: Time to Get Ready For Summer!

katthegreatwillneverdie:

Since summer is right around the corner for me (my finals are over at the end of May), I decided to post an update on my progress thus far. I have maintained steady at 130 lbs, which is good considering I haven’t been working out as much due to my hectic schedule, but bad because I have no muscle…
