“People look for retreats for themselves, in the country, by
the coast, or in the hills . . . There is nowhere that a person can find a more
peaceful and trouble-free retreat than in his own mind. . . . So constantly
give yourself this retreat, and renew yourself.”
- MARCUS AURELIUS
Here's my poetic take on it...
A Retreat
To visit this retreat
Once in while
And be with
The thoughts that are freshly green
The free flowing stream
Of memories and ideas
Cleanse yourself
Of all toxins
In the crystal clear
Environment of this retreat
By shaking the old
By looking towards the future
By living in the present
That’s the wonderful
Retreat of the mind
