MAKE A DIFFERENCE TODAY

Posted by Unknown On Tuesday, February 23, 2010 16 comments
For a change, I thought I'd post an inspirational poem to breathe some hope and courage into our hearts as we start a new day. I hope the following poem can touch you in unexpected ways. At this point of time when the going seem to get tougher, we need so much hope and solidarity lest we grow weary and weighed down by the cares of this world. Take heart - we can do it, together!

MAKING A DIFFERENCE

The world offers everyone a golden opportunity,
In making life more meaningful and with tranquility,

Roses planted in each garden enhances its beauty,
Tendered with care, it continues to grow in prosperity.

Love makes the world go around in peace and harmony,
In places where man had fought with bitterness and hate,

A path of ugly destruction uproots its serenity,
That leads us to find answers to its morbid state.

A fallen world leaves us with many deep uncertainties,
As we investigate its torn threads and gather lost strength,

To build a bright future, in exploration of the humanities,
Thus, conquers our fears, as we celebrate in great length.

Man's knowledge and discovery of his inner and outer world,
Creates a playground for changes in the environment,

Be it a simple task that can alleviate human suffering,
In extending life its daily dose of peace and contentment.

Making a difference is a potential desire to be instilled,
As a personal trait to be fulfilled in each and every aspect,

Of the human race, in its vast culture and religion,
A solidarity given to all minds, open with love and respect.

    ahoo Thank God for the new day! In fact every day is a new day and what we do with it counts.

    What we leave behind is not what is engraved in stone monuments, but what is woven into the lives of others.

    Tuesday is significant for me and friends as we take this day to visit those in old folks home, sick relatives or members of friend's families. Whether in hospital or homes in and around Selangor.

    God never promised that everyday will be a rosy day but He does promised that He will not leave us nor forsake us if we are in His will. We make our living by what we work for, but we make a life by what we give.

    May you be bless beyond what you can comprehend for each satire or poem or essay that you give out daily. Cheers !

    QQ None of us can exist in isolation. Our lives and existence are supported by others in seen and unseen ways, be it by parents, friends or society at large.
    To be aware of these connections, to feel appreciation for them, and to strive to give something back to society in a spirit of gratitude is the proper way for human beings to live.

    Anonymous Some poets say love makes the world go round, turns a bad man into a good person and that love is a great inspiration.

    How true!

    Village Boy Those who are always striving towards a cause, towards an ideal, are ever young. Their minds are alert and they are full of vitality.

    Dear Sis, you are one of them, aren't you?

    Definitely! Without courage, there does not seem to be any future as the outlook would seem bleak and dismal. With courage, we look at life through special lenses that are powered from the energy that rises from our hearts! These are my own words that came in response to your comment.

    Thanks for the inspiration!

    God bless you, Kenneth, with a double portion of courage to face today and everyday!

    Cheers

    That is indeed a very validating and encouraging comment and I have to agree with you! Haha! While I may be old in years, in many ways, my mind is still agile although my eyesight may not be as sharp :-).

    Thanks for the inspiration, Village Boy. God bless your warm and caring heart.

    Have a great day!
