A Worthy Life Poem by Hemendra Singh Deopa

If there is to be a life,
worthy of being alive.
That is to be of reaching out to the core of your heart.
If there is to be a life,
worthy of being alive, is to be of knowing your dreams.

Without stopping at obstacles,
to keep the fire burning inside.
Like mountains to stand on their side,
Every season and every time.

If there is to be a life,
worthy of being alive.
That is to be of dreaming and working
and for the common hopes of growth
worthy of being reasonable for well being of nature and mankind.

If there is to be a life,
worthy of being alive.
That is to be of reaching out for your goals,
and sharing the joy of your life.

With a vision of such life,
If you spend your days, weeks and years,
Still toiling may be but never mind the odds of life.
Ultimately you will be going towards living your beautiful life.

If there is to be that beautiful life,
to be lived on your mind,
I wonder if you concur
but you will be living this life with pride.
