More - The Striver Poem by Samanyan Lakshminarayanan

More - The Striver

Rating: 5.0


what do we yearn for
what is this craving for wealth for
what is this craving for success for
we want to become more...than
what we really are
what is this 'MORE' for
'MORE'
that is the real striver
for the soul

a soul speaks from within... to be contented of what we have.. to strive hard is good especially if we do it with God besides us... this is a piece with concepts that runs deep... so deep it would wake up our sleeping conscience.. thanks for this very great write... 10++++for this Sam

I see this as a classic message and writing for this age and time. The spiritual underpinnings of the whole of eastern culture is under attack and this is the question being asked. A timely writing. And well done. GW62

I'm reminded of my schooldays here....my headnistress very often used to advise..'aim for the first class...then you would atleast get the second class'..I think that everyone can have a high goal of footing on and on in this materialistic world...but within the limits of not being greedy...am I right

i think that everyone should strive to achieve more than they think that they could. no one should settle for what they have, but to push themselves to the furtheist limit that they can, and then settle. a good write
