A mountain chapel

in

Today I visited a mountain chapel on 1045 m altitude in Switzerland. It is a cute, small chapel and the colours inside full of a very intensive green light. I was so inspired when I found a saying from Tagore, that I would like to share it with you.

It is in German:

Ich schlief und träumte, das Leben wäre Freude.
Ich erwachte und sah, das Leben war Pflicht.
Ich handelte und siehe, die Pflicht war Freude

Here my translation in English:

I slept and dreamt that life would be joy.
I woke up and saw that life was duty.
I acted and hence, duty was joy.

Thank you

Thank you for your soulful post, and for reminding us of Tagore's immortal utterance.
