Poetic Intrigue as an answer to “How to not become grumpy”
Romanticism; attitude or intellectual orientation that characterized many works of literature, painting, music, architecture, criticism, and historiography in Western civilization over a period from the late 18th to the mid-19th century.
Romanticism emphasized the individual, the subjective, the irrational, the imaginative, the personal, the spontaneous, the emotional, the visionary, and the transcendental.
(Encyclopaedia Britannica)
Poetry:
„Schläft ein Lied in allen Dingen,
Die da träumen fort und fort,
Und die Welt hebt an zu singen,
Triffst du nur das Zauberwort.“
A song sleeps in all things,
That dream on and on,
And the world begins to sing,
If only you find the magic word.
Wünschelroute, Eichendorff
„Wo jetzt nur, wie unsre Weisen sagen,
Seelenlos ein Feuerball sich dreht,
Lenkte damals seinen goldnen Wagen
Helios in stiller Majestät.”
Where now, as our sages claim,
Only a soulless fireball rotates,
In those days, in silent majesty,
Helios steered his golden chariot.
Auszug aus Götter Griechenlands, Schiller

Matsuo Bashō
کنت کنزاً مخفیاً فأحببت أن أعرف فخلقت الخلق لکی أعرف
I was a hidden treasure; I loved to be known. Hence I created the world so that I would be known
