They also serve who only stand and wait

I remember my father referring to the following poem of John Milton very often

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

On His Blindness

When I consider how my light is spent
Ere half my days in this dark world and wide,
And that one Talent which is death to hide
Lodged with me useless, though my soul more bent
To serve therewith my Maker, and present
My true account, lest He returning chide,
"Doth God exact day-labour, light denied?"
I fondly ask. But Patience, to prevent
That murmur, soon replies, "God doth not need
Either man's work or his own gifts. Who best
Bear his mild yoke, they serve him best. His state
Is kingly: thousands at his bidding speed,
And post o'er land and ocean without rest;
They also serve who only stand and wait."

The last line is the focus

In the dance sequences of cinemas whenever I see group dance, immediately I remember my father, John Milton and the last line

Sometimes the extras are more beautiful than the protagonists with better dance steps/movements; but they cannot find a name in the title, even after-climax scrolling titles when the audience would be leaving without bothering to see the screen

Those extras even can not tell their near and dear that they have acted in so and so film; it may evoke pain rather than pleasure
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
is it not the case with many of us?

ha ha ha

God sees the truth but waits

dont worry
