We started mingling, Those divergent sentiments. Despair with rays of hope; Sorrow with rejoicing tears;
Hues with shades of grey; Passivity with emotive layers; Ingenuity invited ignited minds. Value of eclecticism lead our race.
Eclecticism is a kind of mixed style in fine arts. It is the practice of deriving ideas, style, or taste from a broad and diverse range of sources, and combining them.
In this poem, humans are addressed as eclectic artists considering their mixed emotional exhibit and divergent sentiments. We raise as we mingle, accepting our differences.

Very true, Puzzled Mind! I guess we’re wired in such a way. Perfection can’t give wholehearted happiness sometimes. Life becomes more enjoyable only when there are mixed emotions. I’m glad you acknowledged this perspective. Thank you very much!

Wow. Thats a deep thought Anisha. You are right we cannot perceive things as black and white, its the grey area which actually shows the real depth of life.
