GOOD MORNING MESSAGE #124

Lonely and Sad may just be virtues.

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 #123‘.

Good morning Friends,

Lonely and sad are actually not so bad,
If you want to look for great inner joy;
The world around us can make us mad,
Many things are there that seek to annoy.

The world is, at times, too much with us,
We lose sight of our heart and soul;
There is, sometimes, much ado and fuss,
And life tends to get out of control.

God is good, loving, generous and kind,
Even when we think He has done us bad;
This is one example that comes to mind,
When He graciously makes us lonely and sad.

Lonely and sad actually make us realise,
The happiness that we’d taken for granted;
Losing sight of land whilst seeking the skies,
We probably never had our feet firmly planted.

It may be for no other apparent reason,
That we suddenly feel empty and alone;
It sounds like cosmos is planning treason,
There is nothing that we can call our own.

Cheer up, friend, if you are going through,
This occasional churning of heart and soul;
Before you can it as a conspiracy construe,
I want to make you see through the keyhole.

Have a day with inner joy.

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.
