GOOD MORNING MESSAGE #101

One step enough for me.

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 #100‘.

Good morning Friends,

God, let me not dream of far distance,
Just guide me one step at a time;
No matter what may be the resistance,
Inspire me not to give up the climb.

I don’t want to become a perfect person,
I want to be better person everyday;
Once improved, don’t let me worsen,
Don’t let me abandon my aim halfway.

Let me not look down on all those,
Still struggling at the starting block;
I don’t want to be judge of their woes,
Let them keep up with their own clock.

On the long journey that I’ve to undertake,
Don’t let me feel dejected and tired;
With failures don’t let me have heartbreak,
Keep me cheerful, hopeful and inspired.

Once I arrive where I want to reach,
Keep me from all arrogance and conceit,
Let me be humble in action and speech,
And modest when my task is complete.

Guide my hands and guide my feet,
To be of help to others in need;
Direct me, with others, not to compete,
In hatred, anger, animosity and greed.

Show me always the right path, God.

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.
