GOOD MORNING MESSAGE #236

Life is just a collection of memories…

Good morning friends,

Life is just a collection of memories,
Make happy ones whenever you can.
Later in life you need all those stories,
That remind of shining phases of your lifespan.
“God gave us memories for roses in December”,
Have more of these than bad ones to remember.

Be aware your Today would be Yesterday,
All that you sow will sprout to become trees.
If deeds are to be later recalled with dismay,
It’s not worth spending your time on these.
Your future may not always be in your hands,
But your past is simply footsteps on sands.

Past is, of your life, a very significant part,
Without it you can’t even hope to survive.
All that you have learnt has made you smart,
So in your today and tomorrow you can thrive.
Store it well in the layers of your mind,
You’ll need it if the future becomes unkind.

Ah, time and again I sound like a preacher,
But, it is as far from my intention as can get.
Remember, the keenest student is a teacher,
I’m the most inquisitive student you ever met.
Life is still teaching me a great deal,
I am sharing with you what I learn as I kneel.

….make happy ones when you can.

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.
