"Seek on earth what you have found in heaven."--George William Russell (1867-1935)

From the Russell apothegm posited above, allow there to be a syncretism to reach the Goldberg imagery posited below in your quotidian affairs. Only by seeking such a compromise may one transcend daily existence on lead the main human life possible. Viktor Frankl once said that by aiming higher to more lofty aspirations and goals one can achieve a respectable final outcome in one's ambitions. If I may paraphrase C. S. Lewis, he once postulated that if one aims at heaven, he or she will get earth included in the effort; whereas if the individual aims at earth, neither heaven nor earth will be realized.

Leah Goldberg (1911 – 1970)

With This Night

With this night and with all of its hush

with this night —

with three stars

that were lost ‘twixt the trees

with that wind.

With that wind

that stood still so it might hear

this night —

with this night

and three stars

and that wind.
