People are unfair and ungrateful.
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 #109‘.
Good morning Friends,
So, you found people ungrateful and unfair,
And you concluded you’ve something unique;
Let me tell you everyone has one’s own share,
Everyone has come across such doublespeak.
We think of things from our own view-point,
People are hard-wired to think differently;
After years of our efforts they may disappoint,
By looking at our achievements indifferently.
Rather than being embittered and defeated,
It’s better to take such views in one’s stride;
No point in thinking of them as conceited,
Just go on maintaining silence that is dignified.
Those who already know need no explanation,
Those who don’t, explanation fails to impress;
There is never a reason for your frustration,
Never lose your cool ’cause of unkindness.
Maintain cheerfulness and keep your cool,
Lo and behold, your bete noire feels foiled;
He or she can try best but you’re no fool,
With criticism and let-down you ain’t spoiled.
I wish you today the art of being unruffled,
In the face of the selfish and the ungrateful;
That your positions would be aptly shuffled,
You as the loving and them as the hateful.
Maintain your cool with people.
