Meaningful and Meaningless life

Updated: Feb 26, 2023

Last days I studied 2 articles of William Wordsworth( Preface of the lyrical Ballads) and T.S Eliot ( Individual talent and Tradition). We all already knows the Wordsworth is romantic poet and he relate own every-poem with nature and imagination etc. He said about poetry '' Poetry is the Spontanous overflow of powerful feelings; it takes its origin from emotion recollected in tranquility.'' But T.S.Eliot said Poetry is escape of personality. Normally, everyone says, Poetry is hidden message of poet's emotions, expressions, observations and feelings, but T. S.Eliot says when you write something you should just use your thoughts and feelings ( actions or situation). At there the issue between the meaningful vs meaningless life. In meaningful life which any person achieve their goals according to their own experiences, emotions, thoughts, feelings, skills, interest and etc. The person thinks that he able and be qualified for this position and he become full of happiness in your own life. In meaning-less life the person, By carrying out the wishes of others, he is forced into a position in which he has no interest, the seat not able to enhance their emotions, thoughts, feelings ( action or situation), skills, qualification and ablity. He become not happy in his personal life. For example, in '' Usyless'' by Alford lord tennyson which is the person become a idle king , he was not happy , because the seat is not according to their interest skills, qualification and ability, their interest in trevelling and exploring the world. That thing, according to my point of view, various wastages of time, money , resources and people hopes convert into frustration and rebel against the king if the king not performe their duities , skills, qualification and ability. Due to the poetry's point of view.
