I think we do forget to be in the moment. We see the big picture as overwhelming forgetting that all the little pieces are what makes is special in the moment. I know I'm guilty of that a lot.

Absolutely! I agree with you. After a certain time in our lives, circumstances permitting, we can create ourselves. The problem, if there's a problem, lies with our paying far too much attention to what others may say. As you pointed out, mostly, external creation leads to self-creation.
Awesome response. The poem Wasteland poem was also written shortly after the ending of World War I and there were many areas that looked like wasteland so it's an effective reminder of what man is capable of doing. Also in earlier times when battles were more dependent on good weather typically April the troops would stir after their winter encampments and begin fighting again. Another sad reminder of man's creating wasteland and burials of the dead.
In Japan I saw very old trees. In the USA trees are not always valued for their "inner spirit" nor the joy they give others. One tree I saw in Takayama was 800+ years old. Americans cannot fathom that.
Not only do you summarize one of Chaplin's movies - City Lights (and I do believe the flower girl was blind) - but you manage to weave in Chaplin's life story and why 'The Tramp' was created in the first place.
He came from nothing and became such an icon, all while showing the world that you did not have to lose your humanity in the process.
Thanks for joining me in celebrating Charlie Chaplin's 136th birthday with your tribute!
Every successful person has a pain story, in his life. Every painful story had a successful ending in his life. So accept pain the pain and get ready for success.
Look forward with full of hope not backward with regret.
Never stop doing ur best, because someone doesn't understand it.... We need to do our best for our satisfaction not for others appreciation.
To be the subject of jealousy is the sign of failure and to be object of jealousy is the sign of success in life.
Don't look for support of others. Look for the support of your inner thoughts. You have been given a sufficient energy to be strong and strong in life by Supreme God.
Never hold honesty of a person against the person, otherwise no one will be honest with u also.
