How happy is the blameless vestal's lot!
The world forgetting, by the world forgot.
Eternal sunshine of the spotless mind!
Each pray'r accepted, and each wish resign'd;
Labour and rest, that equal periods keep;
"Obedient slumbers that can wake and weep;"
Desires compos'd, affections ever ev'n,
Tears that delight, and sighs that waft to Heav'n.

Eternal sunshine... interesting here is a question though? would we value something that is eternal
if there were no clouds would we value the sunshine as much?
Beautiful lines
@Aditi: I guess not...but then every event is a consequence of the other...
That itself is the essence of LIFE!!

then u will be the happiest when ur in a coma or go mad and is totally disconnected from the world.. the only "spotless-ness" our mind can achieve.. *sigh* guess it's karma and we are all brought here to suffer? so no eternal sunshine till enlightenment.
@Adelaine: Ohh...I wud reframe you...
We are all brought here to suffer...So that we can feel the pleasure of enlightenment...
