Think Once More-14 Poem by Smrui Ranjan Mohanty

THINK ONCE MORE-14

Life is a complicated mathematic, extremely intricate and deceptive. We spend our entire life on it, making a lot of permutations and combinations, calculating and manipulating the resources at our disposal to gain undue advantages over others. We call it a competition and justify our action in the name of survival of the fittest. In this battle of unequal, innocent people are made scapegoats and their hopes and aspirations are crucified upon a cross of gold. But life defies all calculations and proves all permutation and combination to be awfully inadequate to take care of the intricacies of life. There is a limit to human perception for we do not see what is in store for us. The entire planning may go wrong for the next moment may not be ours. While living a life in the midst of luxury and affluence we should think of others who are barely making their both ends meet for the world is as much theirs as it is ours. Let us realise the stern and naked reality of life and give breathing space to others and live a full life and die a full death on which everyone will mourn.
