Advice

By Munnan
Knowing the answer advice is asked generally,
Following the same be rare unquestionably,
After giving it do ever be indifferent perfectly,
And never expect it to be followed truthfully. [1]
 
In giving advice seek to help - not please only,
Most receive advice but profit from it hardly,
Advice received should not be framed clearly,
Its implementation be the solution surely. [2]
 
Advice uncalled for should never be given,
Advice from person in difficulty not taken,
Keep advice from loved ones - even unpleasant,
Never advise on war, marriage or such event. [3]
 
Advice from friends receive open mindedly,
Never give up to it or follow it blindly,
Whether right or wrong grasp totally,
With judicious reserve comprehend fully. [4]
 
If asked for advice - give wholeheartedly,
Even if knowing its acceptance be failingly,
For in giving the same it helps your clarity,
Showing your own life’s path - so lucidly. [5]

Apology

Add to Technorati Favorites Visit blogadda.com to discover Indian blogs

By Munnan
A second insult be just a stiff apology, 
As the first be when hurt was the party; 
Damages for aggrieved no medicine be, 
But healing from hurt - the desire only. [1] 

Apology an egotism wrong side out surely. 
Apology a good way to have last word clearly, 
The right sort of people want  no apologies, 
And the wrong sort take a mean gain cruelly. [2] 

A good rule in life - never apologize initially, 
Unless accused never defend unnecessarily, 
A request or `please’ may surmise firstly, 
And never apologize unless you feel sorry. [3] 

True remorse but never just a regret be – 
Over consequence but over motive truly, 
Proper action needs no account definitely, 
And any excuse but ever ruins an apology. [4][ 

An apology - but like a lovely flower be, 
Changing the clumsiest moment graciously, 
An apology - the superglue of life be, 
Repairing just about anything resolutely. [5]

Fear

By Munnan
More despicable nothing ever be,
Than respect based on fear truly;
Fear – not the natural state can be,
Of civilized people or any society. [1]

Collective fear as herd instincts be,
Ever tending to produce ferocity,
Towards others who not members be,
Of their herd or of their society. [2]

Most destructive element of Humanity,
Is fear in the human mind over-poweringly,
Fear creates aggressiveness unflinchingly,
And silence terrifies most fearfully. [3]

Fear creates aggressiveness unheedingly,
Fear the most destructive element be,
Fear not natural state of civilized man be,
Yet Fear an emotion crucial for survival be. [4]

Fear on the foundation of worry be,
Fear reinforced by choosing safety,
Fear in the whelm of inadequacy be,
Fear produces one’s own ferocity. [5]

Fear’s birth in corridors of darkness be,
Silence terrifies people the most clearly,
Fear in the unknown and of future be,
Growing in the shadows of lies fully. [6]

Dispelling fear but knowledge be,
Replacing our doubts completely,
Nothing need be feared undoubtedly,
But must be comprehended absolutely. [7]

Greed by compassion overcome be,
It but asks for sharing unflinchingly,
Fear by kindness triumphant over be,
It calls for gratefulness and love only. [8]

Opposite of ignorance knowledge be,
As unconsciousness to awareness be,
The other side of fear freedom be,
Similarly akin to night as the day be. [9]

Fear dispelled by belief understandingly,
Turn the lights on in darkness knowingly,
Eradicate your fear by living deeply,
With the removal of fear you live only. [10]

Keep your fears to yourself completely,
But share inspiration with others openly,
Weep not for past which unchangeable be,
Fear not the future – live in present only. [11]

Judge your age by the pain you feel,
When in contact with a new idea you be,
Without darkness no birth does be,
As without light nothing flowers surely. [12]

Cause Of Violence

By Munnan
Where wealth without work be, 
And commerce without morality; [1]
  
Where pleasure without conscience be, 
And science without humanity; [2]

Where knowledge without character be, 
And duty without modesty; [3]

Where worship without sacrifice be, 
And freedom without duty; [4]

Where enemies without conscience be, 
And ideals without humility; [5]

Where politics without principles be, 
And work with ego dominatingly; [6]

Where oppression with democracy be, 
And principles with arrogance fully; [7]

Where achievement without truth be, 
And action with hate overpoweringly; [8]

Where belief with stubbornness be,
And humanity without responsibility. [9]

Walk Of Life

By Munnan
Bravery in life is steadfast being,
Ever facing for truth prevailing,
Not due to any fear so staying,
Or not running but yet fearing. [1] 

Youth may see the dreams failing,
Fresh and innocent – anger flowing,
Appropriate be grief then existing,
Mandatory there after be the healing. [2] 

Strength lies not in similarity but diversity,
Strong lives motivated by dynamic morality,
Success not measured by position held finally,
But by obstacles overcome in life in reality. [3] 

Life is like a clock endlessly ever ticking. 
Whether getting somewhere or standing, 
It like a grindstone ever so churning,
Grinding or polishing – on us depending. [4] 

Life but like a cycle that you be riding,
You will fall if you ever stop peddling,
Life not of good cards you be holding,
But those held and how you be playing. [5] 

Success – singleness of purpose striving,
It is not length of life, but depth of living,
By what we get it makes our existing, 
We make a life by what we be giving. [6] 

Live as though to die tomorrow being,
Learn as though to live forever seeing,
None to live backwards be getting,
Look ahead as its your future bearing. [7] 

To think life begins as troubles be ending,
Obstacle removed or success first making,
Time to serve or some debt reimbursing,
But the whole life be but in this very clearing. [8] 

The tragedy of life be not its early stopping,
But in our prolonged wait for its beginning,
The tragedy of life but be in hope waiting,
Not striving to overcome or in present living. [9] 

The tragedy of life be in past dwelling,
Or in the dreams of future be sleeping,
Not in present moment concentrating,
Being on the tightrope of life is living. [10] 

Desire be needed for life in motion being,
Learn from yesterday and today living,
And for tomorrow eagerly ever hoping,
And in faith the mind undeniably resting. [11] 

On life's journey faith be nourishing,
Virtuous deeds are the sheltering,
The light by day – be wisdom glowing,
Safety by night – right wariness flowing. [12] 

A candle without fire cannot be burning, 
Man without a spiritual life cannot be living,
Yet sitting quietly and nothing even if doing,
The spring will come and grass will be growing. [13]
