This New Year again I thank God! Because...
The moment I was born, I had Cried!
Now I know otherwise, I would have Died !!
The burden of Ambition, Competition & Comparison, which I had always carried! But now I know that I was complete in fact when I had just arrived!!
I thank God ... because...
I could see, smell, taste & hear right from the beginning!
As now I know that, in many on this Earth, capabilities such as these are still missing!!
I thank God ... because...
Till now, everything I did, my happiness was subject to my winning!
But I know now that, Happiness is just to love & be Loving !!
I thank God... because...
When as a child, I fell down again & again, before I learned to Walk!
As I know now that,
Although parents were holding my hand, it was I who myself Taught!!
I thank God ... because...
Things beyond my reach, I could never get, it was what I was taught!
But now I know that, as a child, I often took a risk & always managed to get things beyond my Cot!!
I thank God... because...
When I couldn’t keep my parents happy, even when I worked Overtime!
As now I know that they were in cloud nine, For the poems which I could barely Rhyme!!
I thank God... because...
Although the Sun, Wind & Stars are the same! But now I know that Life & Living happily is altogether a different Game!!
I thank God ... because...
My heart is beating continuously without my awareness!
And nobody can blame me now, That I am careless!!...
