How To Grow As Human Poem by Arun Maji

Destruction is evil
But it has definite purpose.
Only through destruction
Creation is born.

It's like-
Light won't be smiling
If there is no darkness.
Life won't be as exciting
If there is no death.

It's funny, isn't it
That God and devil co-exist?

To grow as human
I must learn to accept-
Both destruction and creation
With equal ease.
Both light and darkness
With equal joy.
Both joy and sorrow
With equal grace.

Only to the steadfast serene mind
Destruction unfolds its beauty.
