Success! The elixir of life

Stupefied amidst the ruins

of an un built empire,

an empire built on dreams,

fortresses built on faith,

of rulers untold and

of rules unwritten.

When you see the light,

that’s illuminating the path ahead.

It is not just light,

it’s a kind of luminescence.

One that is emanating from the self,

from the body, from the soul.

It is this warm guiding light,

that is dredging you through untold darkness.

As long as this fire smolders,

the journey of life never ends.

It is this perseverance for perfection

that helps you achieve the ultimate success.

Success is not a word, it’s an experience,

its implication will make you feel:

a feeling of joy, a sense of satisfaction,

a justification of your otherwise meaningless existence.

Even in the darkest alleys,

right through the scariest paths,

the fire in you must burn,

it’s warm glow shearing through the darkness.

The joy of success is the elixir of life,

purely sensational, purely divine!

Stop dragging your feet

through the sands of time.

Start running; or at least walking,

To leave your footprints on this planet.

So that men will come to know,

and speak of your glory even among foe.

for my friends..

Life is a simple stupid vehicle,

And your mind is the foolish driver.

Your mind decides to step on the gas pedal

And you see that your life’s moving very fast.

Your mind decides to hit the brakes and

Your life starts to slow down.

If you accelerate too fast

Your life may go out of control.

If you apply too much brakes

Your life comes to a grinding halt.

Then there are these thing called gears,

They are nothing but your lovely friends;

They make you accelerate in the first,

Pick up some speed through the second,

Overtake the rest with the third, and

Help you show your power with the fourth.

They help you to reach your goals

With the best fuel efficiency possible.

Without the first gear you might not have moved;

Without the final one you might never have reached.

Across the potholes and over the speed breakers,

Life goes on towards its final destination.

But then you hear the old saying,

“Life is a journey, it doesn’t have a destination”.

But the vehicle called life has one,

That is to reach its maximum speed.

Spend your time shifting through the gears

And life will attain its maximum velocity.

the heart.. and the brain

The tide lowers and

The tide rises,

Paths will change and

Positions will differ,

The ocean of changes

Will drown your soul,

Choke your mind and

Strangle your conscience.

It is your brain

That keeps you alive,

It is this machine

That works untiringly,

It has no feelings;

It has no senses;

It has no sadness and

It has no joy,

It takes you through

The ups and downs of life,

Defeating your sorrows and

Defending your heart.

The heart is the weakest

Of your frontiers,

Affected by sadness and

Slowed down by sorrows.

Strengthen your heart and

Enrich your brain,

Lose your conscience and

Save your skin.

sands of time.. a simple start

As the shadows race across

The sands of time,

And the wind shears

Down your face,

The train storms towards

Its final destination,

The mountains and plains

Far in the distance,

These crisscrossing changes

Lead to nowhere,

The journey of life

Never changes its path,

Your destiny is what you have learnt

And what you have earned all along.
