Take a break before you break down.
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 #114‘.
Good morning Friends,
If you live in a crowded city or a town,
And you rarely allow Nature to come near;
Chances are that from sunrise to sundown,
You live a life of constant anxiety and fear.
“Will I reach my office on time today?”
“Will my boss be annoyed or happy?”
“I hope friends will let me have my way,
Rather than telling me to make it snappy.”
“The traffic is killing, the noise is a roar,
Everywhere I go I am never alone;
This one is annoying, that one is a bore,
What really have I got of my own?”
Take a trip to the green hills or plains,
And let Nature work its magic on you,
Walk in the clear air, be drenched by the rains,
Look at the flowers red, white, yellow and blue.
Enjoy your own company for a change,
Or share it with your partner, birds and butterflies,
Lo and behold you can, your life, rearrange,
Happiness soars and anxiety dies.
Believe me it doesn’t cost much to be rejuvenated,
It’s not money, you’ve got to spare time,
But, do it before you’re completely saturated,
With daily chores for which no one gives a dime.
Let me wish you a day and life today,
Wherein you do things for your own sake,
Where you allow Nature to have its say,
And tell yourself, “I deserve a break.”
