Spelling Success

Posted by Vinod on March 28, 2009

Get up and move even if that takes you deeper into the forest
Find out for yourself that even light there is blinded
Follow your instincts and hope will be born out of nowhere
Deep within your own heart you will see it lighten up and grow

Even when you know you always did the best
Your failure and follies, you are always reminded
And before you start taking chances, you start thinking ‘Life is unfair’-
“If only I knew how to spell the word success”

If life had to be all about spelling Correct
I bet our small successes have always been misspelled,
Ignored and belittled while we are busy fixing our failure
Success will one day storm in and look you straight in your eyes
Then don’t try to spell failure and think you misspelled success

The Brute will tire, the human spirit won’t

Posted by Vinod on March 22, 2009

“Murmuring I hear, not audible I say
Each step I take the farther I am pushed”

Life is so full of things that mean nothing and then when you find something to which you can attach a meaning it disappears. When it reappears you don’t recognize it, it’s irrelevant for your interests have changed and you have been chasing some new fulfillment.

But that is life, if you wait for what is gone to come back, you will be at the traffic light for a long time to come. What you choose now is the most important; your choices yesterday can’t be undone. You might be half of what you were for the choices you made, but you still exist to make more choices for yourselves. So why whine when there are a few drops still left in the fallen bottle.

I know my voice can’t be heard but I will keep saying because I still can hear the whispers, the murmurs, and though feeble, a tone of life around. It is my response to what I hear; Audible or not I will speak; for the energy of thought will emerge loud and clear one day.

I will move, take a step, one at a time even if the forces pushes me back today. One day the Brute will tire, the human spirit won’t.

The Brute will tire, the human spirit won’t
The Brute will tire, the human spirit won’t
The Brute will tire, the human spirit won’t
The Brute will tire, the human spirit won’t
The Brute will tire, the human spirit won’t…..
