GOOD MORNING MESSAGE #102

How to right a wrong.

From the first of June, 2018, I started writing Good Morning messages in the form of poems (Please read: ‘Good Morning Message #1‘).

The last such message was: Good Morning Message #101‘.

Good morning Friends,

When you deal with a person in the wrong,
Try not to be too direct, cheeky and bold;
Most people in this respect are headstrong,
They won’t really like to be ticked and told.

If the aim is to make things and him better,
You must facilitate his learning on his own;
Be stickler to the spirit and not the letter,
Set right the wrong but don’t make a clone.

Also make sure it is actually a wrong,
And not another way to look at things;
If latter, you should’ve known all along,
Newness to the table it actually brings.

Everyone is entitled to one’s own view,
There is no absolute wrong or right;
In everything one can find something new,
And still one needn’t be held in spite.

If we all know how to deal with divergence,
The world would be finally free from conflict;
Eventually, there would be an emergence,
Of a society that’s kind and not so strict.

In any case just remember this old saying:
Hate the wrong not the wrong-doer;
Of a richer world foundation you’d be laying,
And you yourself won’t, by it, become poor.

Have a peaceful day.

I have done a long stint in the Indian Navy that lasted for nearly thirty seven years; I rose as far as my somewhat rebellious and irreverent nature allowed me to. On retirement, in Feb 2010, the first thing that occurred to me, and those around me, was that I Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest (you will find an article with this title in this blog) and hadn't lost all my noodles and hence thought of a blog titled 'This 'n That'. I later realised that every third blog is called 'This 'n That' and changed the name to 'Sunbyanyname'. I detest treading the beaten track. This blog offers me to air 'another way' of looking at things. The idea is not just to entertain but also to bring about a change. Should you feel differently, you are free to leave your comments. You can leave comments even when you agree and want to share your own experience about the topic of the blog post. Impudent or otherwise, I have never been insousciant and I am always concerned about the betterment of community, nation and the world. I hope the visitors of this blog would be able to discern it.
