The Truth About Earthly Life Poem by Dr John Celes

’Tis not in what you are but how you are;
’Tis not in what you do but how you do;
’Tis not in what state you’re but how you made it;
It is not in getting awards but befittingly!

This world isn’t perfect; nor are we;
This world isn’t fair and so are we;
This life isn’t lasting and ends fast;
We all tend to soon be things of past!

Think of the unfortunate souls then;
They are so miserable for no fault of theirs;
Think of the love and kindness we have got
From God, although we do not deserve.

Success in life is just one thing;
But how its got matters most;
Failure is a step below success,
But goads persons to live a life sane.

Let’s make the world a better place;
Let’s fight against forces of evil;
Let’s acknowledge the supreme God.
Let’s live lives humbly, amicably.
