Joy is everywhere

Joy is everywhere; it is in the earth’s green covering of grass:
in the blue serenity of the sky: in the reckless exuberance of spring:
in the severe abstinence of grey winter: in the living flesh
that animates our bodily frame: in the perfect poise
of the human figure, noble and upright: in living, in the exercise
of all our powers: in the acquisition of knowledge. . .
Joy is there everywhere.

Rabindranath Tagore
