Relationships Matter

My dear friend so spoke the wise angels who had converged together at my place for the first time
Let us speak about the importance of relationships as human lead their lives beyond their prime
When man is full of vitality and his energy is solely focused on advancing his cause of earning a dime
He may unconsciously commit a folly in avoiding human company and blame it on the lack of time

Every man has the power to choose the way he consciously spends his time on a daily basis
Some prefer to stay solitary lives and avoid interacting with the world without examining their beliefs
Some prefer to stay single when their social interactions seems to have resulted in moments of grief
Some prefer to make efforts to influence the world and either persist or drop-out when they turn weak

Every man has the potential opportunity to develop diverse nature of relationships with common folk
He can have a common cause that brings him together or a common interest that helps initiate a talk
He may hold some grudges with those who have divergent views on the way world needs to operate
He may never acknowledge the good qualities in them since he refuses to examine his mental state

He may fluctuate in displaying extreme emotions that others around him may never be able to relate
He may believe others are unfair and need to control their urges and no longer wildly vacillate
He may turn judgmental about people or their actions that even possibly result in relationships of hate
He may not turn inwards trying to examine his values and beliefs that may eventually impact his fate

He may justify all his actions of not forming relations a result of his trying experiences in the world
He may avoid social interactions remembering only sour experiences handed out by destiny’s card
He may unconsciously not understand the implications of his actions or inactions on his own brethren
He may find it difficult to digest their emotional outburst when it comes for reason that he can’t fathom


As he grows older he turns inwards but his needs may necessitate him to look for external support
If he has never have spent time relating with people in better times he can ill afford to visit their court
If when he was younger and could develop a stronger foundation he decided to weaken his fort
He would need to consider himself lucky should in times of need others refuse to play spoil sport

One needs to remember that relationships develop over time and requires one to invest his effort
One needs to render help without having any expectations that in times of need he will get support
One needs to demonstrate love and affection to people who in various forms he gets to interact
One needs to be equally detached so as to not lose one’s sleep when desires conflicts with fact!

A Final Escapade

I thought of running away from the pulls and pressures of this heartless mortal world
I could walk no more than a couple of yards before I was pulled back by the directionless herd

I thought that I can stay away from hospitals and avoid the misery and agony of the daily pain
I could not avoid sickness that stayed back at my home and contributed to ill-health and loss of gain

I thought I could proactively avoid people who demonstrated the highest levels of negative attitude
I could not turn them away from my door when they attacked in pairs and tested my levels of fortitude

I thought I could avoid interaction with folks who in this life had done little beyond listing their demand
I could do little beyond wearing an arm band voicing my protest when my life began to go out of hand

I thought I will be the change that I seek in this world and set out with high levels of idealistic outlook
I realized that every man in this world will undertake course correction on facing his own road block

I thought I should share my set of experiences and provide feedback to others about their behaviour
I realized that man loves praise but does not like others to point out perceived flaws in their armour

I thought I could be open and transparent about my inner-world with those who I considered close
I realized the world to be an opaque place and it does not take much for one to literally come to blows

I thought that I could share my deeper desires and voice out my point of view on areas of change
I realized the value of silence in maintaining sanity and limiting extent of damage within a set range

I thought that I could also expect help from the same people to whom I selflessly rendered support
I realized that one may be on a set of crutches yet has no right to expect help while defending his fort

I thought that I could persuade others to live an independent life and learn to live an enriching life
I realized that I could do little to influence others when they had no desire to let go a life of strife

I realized that I may have expected my universe to comprise of events filling it with a set colour
I recognized that one needs inner wisdom to sustain a fulfilling life beyond shield of external valour

I realized that what was seen and what was reality may have been as different as sugar and salt
I realized that was the ways of the world and Nature exhibited variety and it was no one’s fault

I realized that there was no escape but to live and stand up for your own set of values and belief
I recognized that one should let go of any expectations of desiring others to turn a new leaf

I realized that one needs to only stand up to your own conscience and internal probes and scrutiny
I understood that the seeker of truth needs to surrender and lets nature direct the flow and wisely avoids mutiny!

Absorb the Moment

The wise of this Universe firmly extol the benefits of being alert and fully living in the present
Living with memories of the past or wishful thinking of the future leads to a steady descent
Man creates his own set of challenges when he fails to absorb the essence of every moment
One need not undertake radical transformation at once but can steadily eliminate clutter in his tent

It is so very easy to conjure up excuses to avoid taking up responsibility for bringing about change
One needs to accept complete ownership for his life rather than expect external factors to re-arrange
One should avoid old habits blaming life circumstances as primary reasons for not making his mark
One need not be restricted by genetic make-up or conditioned beliefs that fail to provide light in the dark

It is so comfortable to avoid taking positive steps and blame your destiny for all your experiences
It is so comfortable to believe that you have nothing within your control to alter your own providence
You may have internalized beliefs that may be inconsistent and yet contribute to your current reality
You may need to develop new paradigm that seem even radical to you rather than wallow in self pity

You can elevate your life with conscious endeavour and you need to start by eliminating your fear
You need not think about the time that it will take nor depend on support of people to help you steer
You need to consciously stop thinking of unhappy memories that you associate as personal failure
You need to focus and creatively visualize on positive images that helps you alleviate your pressure

You need to only entertain positive thoughts that ensures no entry to energies that pulls you down
You need to avoid people who seem to infect you with a virus that fails to lift you out of your zone
You need to steadily un-clutter your life as you aim to find your true path and calling of your soul
You need to believe in the higher power to work up synchronicity and help achieve your final goal!
