An Illusion Or Reality Peace And Freedom? (2)

Rating: 2.8


Too much delight in success or dejection in failure lead nowhere;
Success or failure one should take it in the same way as veterans do.
For, end of game only decides finally about the calibre of a person;
Until then efforts in the right direction only make sure one’s success.
This is the lesson life teaches to all when one ventures on a mission!

Living life is not a pastime on useless thoughts, words and deeds;
But living so, many remain as burden or deadweight on others!
By being so, not only they but also others lose peace and freedom.
So, a question arises: What for are we living life in the world?
To earn name, fame, position and honour we live in the world!

Instead of trying so how many aspire for wealth and power in shortcut!
However, both good and bad suffer and crave for peace and freedom;
Also, both the paths of the sincere and sinner are not smooth and free!
So, what could be the way to live a smooth and settled life in the world?
Certainly not materialism but only humanism is the best way to live!

Knowledge of Self, world, Nature and God is the first need for all;
Such knowledge only is helpful to decide what one’s duty here is;
Ambition based on the vision of knowledge will be the moving force;
One’s nature, interest and talent when used in job make one great;
The work done so will be achievement fetching peace and freedom!
