When I sit back and reflect on the time gone by,
When I sit back and reflect on the love I got and lost,
When I sit back and reflect on the beautiful days together with my love,
When I sit back and reflect on the struggles I have been through Like sea waves
which keep inspiring humanity from time immemorial,
When I sit back and reflect on my friends from school, college and work place,
When I sit back and reflect on the loss of loved ones and their departure to
kingdom of unknown -heavenly abode,
When I sit back and reflect on the lives of the teeming millions struggling
for two times meals,
When I sit back and reflect on slum children who grow up without
experiencing thrills of childhood! !
When I sit back and reflect on youth and old age; once gone never
come back unlike season,
When I sit back and reflect on success everything is transient,
Realisation dawn on me everything in life is transient like
bubbles on the water except change,
So struggles are on and will remain on; change being permanent; till eternity.
By Mamutty chola
We should sit back and reflect on what we gained and what we lost. We will surely find where we are heading and is it right or wrong.
