The actual tragedies of life bear no relation to one's preconceived ideas. In the event, one is always bewildered by their simplicity, their grandeur of design, and by that element of the bizzare which seems inherent in them.

Fire. (Sonnet II.)
Not without fire can any workman mould
The iron to his preconceived design,
Nor can the artist without fire refine
And purify from all its dross the gold;
Nor can revive the phoenix, we are told,
Except by fire. Hence if such death be mine
I hope to rise again with the divine,
Whom death augments, and time cannot make old.
O sweet, sweet death! O fortunate fire that burns
Within me still to renovate my days,
Though I am almost numbered with the dead!
If by its nature unto heaven returns
This element, me, kindled in its blaze,
Will it bear upward when my life is fled.

Design
Badly hit by the simplicity
Moving down the lane
The design
To defeat
The simplicity but it has a great design!
To catch the fancies of the eyes
And to influence the mind.

Outside of the chair, the teapot is the most ubiquitous and important design element in the domestic environment and almost everyone who has tackled the world of design has ended up designing one.

I tend to not want to put labels or categories on the music, only because people come with preconceived ideas about what they're going to hear, or won't come for this reason.

I don't have role models or watch much TV. I go to awards ceremonies but often I don't even know who the people are. I think that's good, because then you don't have preconceived ideas about them.

Our life is frittered away by detail. An honest man has hardly need to count more than his ten fingers, or in extreme cases he may add his ten toes, and lump the rest. Simplicity, simplicity, simplicity!

A man is a poet if difficulties inherent in his art provide him with ideas; he is not a poet if they deprive him of ideas.

Design in art, is a recognition of the relation between various things, various elements in the creative flux. You can't invent a design. You recognize it, in the fourth dimension. That is, with your blood and your bones, as well as with your eyes.

Soul Is invisible
Light is inherent in fire.
Sound is inherent in words.
Heat is inherent in body..
So is soul in living things.

What I think is extraordinary, apart from the inherent values of the ideas, is that we were experiencing ourselves a historic moment in the life of the Internet, an example of how massive publishing power is in the hands of anyone with access to a PC.

An apology
I apologize for being very rude
That was my initial attitude
I used to loose temper very easily
But regained later on very quickly
I will be drawn in unnecessary wrangle
Though it may be childish from any angle
What to do as it is inherent weakness?
Number of times I have tried to address and shown the keenness
I turn to look back my behavior
I wished someone to come and act as savior
I am sailor on the high sea
Independent and totally worry free
I can not compose or read my own action
I react badly to any hostile reaction
That is draw back I will mostly resent
Rest everything is o.k. and nothing to lament
I strongly believe in having healthy relation
Human being wants happiness with its elation
We can not differentiate between good or bad
Any set back in relation makes you very sad
As the clock may not stop and time may tick on
There can be hardly any event which can not be won
I have tried my level best to score honestly
Still could not create position even after trying earnestly
I have tested no defeat in life
Though it had proved difficult as if to walk on edge of knife
I remained adamant and refused to budge
Though I bore no grievance or grudge
Someone told me secretly “Love makes man perfect”
He meant to say that I must go for in and act
It was beautiful gift given by the almighty
Life is useless and hollow and may be empty
I wondered what it actually meant
How love could make all that very much apparent
I had know it to be weakness prevalent and inherent
I had not gone through that ordeal any time or recent
Any how I thought it may be nice experiment
I was in no mood to make any movement
If that was to happen any time I was well prepared
I never regretted the decision or compared
Any how I have always felt it as magnetic pull
Life becomes meaningless and appears very dull
I thought for a while and agreed for it at once
I was to make a nice attempt in that regard hence
I was not at all against any bond
In fact I was very much eager and fond
I had fear of not succeeding in that move
Friends had tried many time for apprehensions to remove

Upon the Fish in The Water
The water is the fish's element;
Take her from thence, none can her death prevent;
And some have said, who have transgressors been,
As good not be, as to be kept from sin.
2.
The water is the fish's element:
Leave her but there, and she is well content.
So's he, who in the path of life doth plod,
Take all, says he, let me but have my God.
3.
The water is the fish's element,
Her sportings there to her are excellent;
So is God's service unto holy men,
They are not in their element till then.

Grandeur and beauty are so very opposite, that you often diminish the one as you increase the other. Variety is most akin to the latter, simplicity to the former.
