Rabindranath Tagore
One of the things I love the most about making content online is... I've grown so much as a human being.
My art has gotten better too, of course.
But every day I'm introduced to so many cultures and customs and people from all different walks of life and it has honestly made me a better person because of that.
Just today, I was introduced to Rabindranath Tagore. And I think the thing that made me immediately want to learn more about him was that he was referred to as "The Bard of Bengal."
He was a Polymath (which, I think means he was really smart in a lot of different subjects) from Bengal who became the first non-European and the first lyricist to win the Nobel Prize in Literature
He was a poet, writer, playwright, composer, philosopher, social reformer, and painter.
He was a humanist, universalist, internationalist, and ardent critic of nationalism, he denounced the British Rule over India and advocated independence from Britain.
He hung out with Einstein and Gandhi and seemed like a generally cool guy.
Both India and Bangladesh use his works as their national anthems.
And while I'm getting most of my information from Wikipedia... my subscribers from India and Bengal assured me that Rabindranath Tagore is absolutely beloved and truly someone more people should know about.
Sending Big Hugs from the Hobbit Hole. ♥♥♥

And when old words die out on the tongue, new melodies break forth from the heart; and where the old tracks are lost, new country is revealed with its wonders.

Las noches más oscuras son las que ofrecen amaneceres más luminosos. Lo único que se necesita es tener la suficiente fe para resistir hasta el alba.

In the drowsy dark cave of the mind dreams build their nest with fragments dropped from day's caravan.

ক্ষণিক আলোকে আঁখির পলকে তোমায় যবে পাই দেখিতে
In a sliver of light in the blink of an eye When I catch a glimpse of you
ওহে হারাই হারাই সদা হয় ভয়, হারাই হারাই সদা হয় ভয়, হারাইয়া ফেলি চকিতে
I am ever fearful of losing you Only to lose you in a flash
আশ না মিটিতে হারাইয়া,
পলক না পড়িতে হারাইয়া,
হৃদয় না জুড়াতে হারাইয়া ফেলি চকিতে
I lose you before my hopes are met I lose you before I can blink my eye I lose you before my heart is soothed I lose you in a flash
