The voices from the cold Himalayas sang
Loud and powerful their beautiful voices rang
Of life being a pursuit of the meaningful
Against hedonism & being selfishly wasteful
From the cafes of Brazil, the voices replied
Live without fear of tomorrow, they implied
Said life existed only in the present moment
In giving up on the past & future's torment
Philosophers from Greece proceeded to say
Be purposeful & carefree, at the end of the day
Said it was a balance that must be achieved
To attain harmony was best, they all agreed
The African man replied as we watched the snow
The answer lies in the fact that we do not know
And truly acknowledging us never really knowing
Ensuring knowledge & perspectives are growing
