Success: Slowing Failure Poem by Aniruddha Pathak

In times ill let one learn to endure—
Learn to live, smile and bear if no cure,
It pays to be alive,
To dig in and survive;
Success oft lies in slowing failure.

Growth slows down before a falling phase begins. Fall then accelerates and hell comes loose. In situations like this it's great achievement in slowing down the rate of fall. There's little one can do save watch, endure and stay firm and resolved. One may recall what Krishna said in Bhagavad-Gita (2.14) : tān titikśhva bhārata. Learn to bear, O Arjun.
