The
philosophy of life is an overall outlook or attitude towards life and its purpose.
Human
activity is limited by time and death. But we forget that; we take our time
with distractions, never asking ourselves if they matter, if we really find
them valuable. In addition to our personal philosophy, we will live without
meaning in our lives.
Naidu gives
us the direction of his optimistic philosophy of life in his poems.
Sarojini
Naidu is an Indian politician and poet. An advocate of civil rights, women's
liberation and anti-imperialist ideas, she was an important figure in the
colonial regime.
If we see,
the poem "Transience" by Naidu,
“Nay, do not grieve tho' life be full
of sadness,
Dawn will not veil her splendor for your grief
Nor spring deny their bright,
appointed beauty
To lotus blossom and ashoka leaf”
The poet
suggests, let's be happy when sadness comes in our life because no one waits
for us and not even the dawn does not hide its beauty from us. Lotus flower and
ashoka leaf will do its job,
‘’Nay, do not pine, tho' life be dark
with trouble,
Time will not pause or tarry on his
way;
To-day that seems so long, so
strange, so bitter,
Will soon be some forgotten
yesterday’’
The poet suggests that, Life goes
with trouble then time will not wait for us, when you feel in trouble with this
time and you will be forgotten so soon.
“Nay, do not weep; new hopes, new
dreams, new faces,
The unspent joy of all the unborn years”
The poet
gives us idea about optimistic of philosophy of life, she gives us guideline
through the poem, Sometimes we may fall in loneliness in our life but
we should do not weep, may be a happy moment will come soon.
In the poem,
the poet tries to suggest that life is a combination of pain and pleasure. We
should forget the pain with joy.
Life:
The poet gives the idea of children and men growing up and they don't understand the meaning of life, she describes the pain that comes in our lives, but the kind of people who think life is carnival joy happiness.
The poet
gives us the idea that you should not go into turbulent times until you cannot
understand the meaning of suffering, of pain, of life's struggle.
Life is full
of suffering if we go through the moment like a phoenix born after being hurt.
Thus, life is nothing but struggle and victory over all suffering.
In this poem, the poet also gives us optimistic philosophical
thoughts.
Autumn Song
Autumn Song
is a metaphorical poem in which the poet compares autumn to the state of her
heart after losing a dream, perhaps that she fell in love with someone.
“My heart is weary and sad and alone,
For its dreams like the fluttering leaves have gone,
And why should I stay behind?”
However, in
the fall, its leaves wither and tear, leaving a bare tree that cannot be heard
in the storm. Like a sad lonely tree, the poet's heart is also tired, sad and
lonely because like the leaves of a tree that have lost their dreams or loved
ones.
These conceptual philosophies guide my life;
Life is about solving problems, and every obstacle is the way forward.
Take care of yourself first, If you are not healthy it is very difficult to be happy.
Life is certain. Do what brings out the best in you.
You are the author of your
own life. Improve, not excuse.
