GOOD MORNING MESSAGE #214

What would you like to be born as?

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 #213‘.

Good Morning Friends,

If God were to give you a choice,
What would you like to be at birth?
Would being very strong make you rejoice?
Or being very intelligent fill you with mirth?

Or would you like to be born as a Lion,
The recognised king of the forest?
Or would you rather be born as a scion,
To a family that is seen as the richest?

A great singer, painter or actor,
What would give you the greatest joy?
Would it be to be seen as a benefactor,
Or to change over to being a girl if born as a boy?

There are hundreds and thousands of choices,
It is hard to think of as what you want to be born.
There are in your head many competing voices,
Between various options you are torn.

You are a very happy person indeed,
If you’d like to be born as who you are.
“God, I have neither any remorse nor greed,
You have already made me a bright star. “

“I am lucky you made me who I am,
I don’t want to change a thing.
To becoming someone I don’t give a damn,
Even if it were to be a queen or a king. “

You are happy if you’d like to be born as yourself.

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.
