Trouble Shooting... Poem by Kesav Venkat Easwaran

Trouble Shooting...

Rating: 5.0


You, we, me, in life-
a single entity
Match, pair, couple,
all absurdity
Hands to bear- their own feet
no ambiguity
Heart, deeds, good-
look after worries
Expect not much from
anybody
Laugh away life's
all adversaries
Equanimity-
a necessity
Absolute in the face
of adversities

in an age where every one is singled out, and made ot fend for themselves, extolling them to laugh away the adversaries is a great idea. as shakespeare once said in as you like it, sweet are the uses of adversity, here read sweeter it is to laugh at them or laugh them away. really extolling indeed. jaypee

the people comprising our very existance in this enchanting world, like pandoras box will reveal who and what we are and will be...a philosopical or rather a psychological point of view from the maestro...such a wonderful advice to cherish. Another food for the thoughts. My highest score goes to you.

not at all...in the practical life we lead, the 'threes' have a lot of relevance...1) me 2) the ones i like 3) the ones i do not like…these three decide my fortunes almost jointly…

Yes - it is expectation from others that messes things up. When we expect we open ourselves up to disappointment. Wise words, but diffifult to live by. It takes much time and effort, and often we forget the simple things - just live in the moment, and be the best person that we can be. Life will fall into place. Wonderful perspective, and worth a 10 from me! Linda :)
