GOOD MORNING MESSAGE #55

Wednesday morning and the fifty-fifth day verse as a good morning message.

From the first of June, 2018, I started writing Good Morning messages in the form of poems (Please read: ‘Good Morning Message #1‘).

The last such message was: Good Morning Message #54‘.

Good morning Friends,

How would we spend our day today,
If someone were to tell us it’s our last?
Will we have something nice to do and say,
Or will we leave our friends aghast?

Chances are we’d like to be good and kind,
So that, by everyone, we are fondly missed;
Most likely we’d put any bitterness behind,
No one should recall that we ever hissed.

If our last day can fill us with such goodwill,
Why not assume each day to be our last?
As today’s generation would say: “Just chill”,
And put our hair down and “have a blast”.

How can we say, when the Angel of Death,
Would come knocking at our door;
And before we breathe our last breath,
We can’t say we haven’t been given encore?

Today is then the day to mend fences,
Be nice to everyone who’s around;
Ah, lets get rid of all our pretenses,
And use the altruism that we have found.

Have a well-spent Wednesday spreading goodwill.

I have done a long stint in the Indian Navy that lasted for nearly thirty seven years; I rose as far as my somewhat rebellious and irreverent nature allowed me to. On retirement, in Feb 2010, the first thing that occurred to me, and those around me, was that I Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest (you will find an article with this title in this blog) and hadn't lost all my noodles and hence thought of a blog titled 'This 'n That'. I later realised that every third blog is called 'This 'n That' and changed the name to 'Sunbyanyname'. I detest treading the beaten track. This blog offers me to air 'another way' of looking at things. The idea is not just to entertain but also to bring about a change. Should you feel differently, you are free to leave your comments. You can leave comments even when you agree and want to share your own experience about the topic of the blog post. Impudent or otherwise, I have never been insousciant and I am always concerned about the betterment of community, nation and the world. I hope the visitors of this blog would be able to discern it.
