If one has the opportunities one must always renew oneself. Remake oneself, redesign oneself and refashion oneself. Now that I am older I understand the full import of Yeats's cry in An Acre of Grass where the aged poet says, 'Myself shall I remake till I am a Timon or a Lear'..
Amare tumi ashesh koreccho
Tomai notun kore pabo bole harai khhone khon or mor bhalobashar dhon. The 'bhalobashar dhon' could also be the Self.
In one his last songs Rabindranath writes, 'Hey nuton dekha dik aar baar'. 
Notun chhada je bancha jai na. One always needs to reinvent oneself in order to live fully...

Post on 11.12.17  in  Facebook . Felt that the thoughts were valuable..
