GOOD MORNING MESSAGE #365

Good morning friends. One year has gone by and now it seems like I started only yesterday. Here is the last one before I take a break:

After their experience, I’ve heard some people complain,
Love is alright but it can cause quite a pain.

Love’s Labour Lost appears to be their main concern,
I loved him (or her) so much but there was no return.

Little did I know there won’t be any reward,
I wish, to the beginning, my life could be restored.

If I were to live my life all over again,
My own efforts in Love won’t ever go in vain.

Happiness in love can’t be in some return,
If you’re truly in love, this you’ll soon learn.

Asking for reward is like belittling Love yourself,
We need to remember that Love is a reward in itself.

Vilifying your own love doesn’t speak very high,
Of what was in your mind when you gave Love a try.

Everyone must know, Love is in the giving,
It can’t be Love if you dream of receiving.

In Love you always experience nearness to God,
It is only through expectation that Love can be flawed.

Selflessness is Love’s fundamental attribute,
It has nothing at all to do with your own efforts’ fruit.

Life is, we know, short; so love before you die,
Love can make you soar, Love can make you fly.

Only those who’re blessed know how to love,
They shall be closest to the Loving God above.

Vulnerable they’ll never be to hurts and pains,
Since they’d never be expecting, in love, any gains.

Even as I end, this is the best I could give:
Some live to love, I love so as to live.

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.

  1. A great feat and an outstanding effort to produce a very well thought of n reseached Good Morning Message for 365 days without fail is highly commendable. Very well done Ravi. Stay blessed.

  2. Simply Wow, So well summed up Ravi PaaJi .
    .
    कर्मण्येवाधिकारस्ते मा फलेषु कदाचन ।
    मा कर्मफलहेतुर्भुर्मा ते संगोऽस्त्वकर्मणि ॥
    भावार्थ :
    तेरा कर्म करने में ही अधिकार है, उसके फलों में कभी नहीं। इसलिए तू कर्मों के फल हेतु मत हो तथा तेरी कर्म न करने में भी आसक्ति न हो॥
    .
    The Peace, Happiness and sense of self-fulfillment by Loving
    Without Reason
    Without Bounds
    Without Discrimination,
    … is Love’s Own Reward,
    everything else is Bonus …
    may or may not come, No regret.
    .

  3. True love is only between soul and creator.
    Such love is Godly, uplifting,attracting/pulling towards and upward like strong magnet. It is without asking anything in return, not counted or measured in quantity or volume by any available scales of measurement. The soul gets very pangs of separation from her beloved the Lord/God continuously without break but it has its own charm and contentment.

    Rest all worldly love which we all express or experience is pole apart from true love of God.This is nothing but actually it is lust. Lousy always has downward tendency and pulls us down eventually fades with time and varying circumstances. It cannot remain constant like the love between soul and creator.

    In the first case there is only sacrifice without getting or expecting anything in return whereas other love between individuals/souls is never without expectations in return. That’s why it starts deteriorating as the time passes by.

    Ravi Sahib I congratulate you for the composiotion of wonderful gm messages for the whole years. I can well imagine the efforts and labour put in by you for bringing out these beautiful not only readable but inspiring and igniting pieces covering various aspects of human life on this beautiful planets and pointing /indicating to life beyond.

    Have a nice break. We shall be eagerly awaiting for your resumption. Lord bless you to continue with courage of conviction.
    Profound and warm regards,
    Harbans Singh Dhillon

  4. Respected Harbans ji,

    My parents loved me and gave me the gift of Gurbani. It has kept me going all these years; in happiness and sorrows, in good times and bad times, it has reminded me that God loves me.

    Read any of my messages and you will find that it has been already discussed in Gurbani. I am only a messenger.

    Warm regards.

  5. Ravi Sahib,
    I can well imagine and make out from your composition. You have never deviated from the essence of Gurbani. You have been steering your vessel successfully during the whole year without any gyro error. It was always perfectly pointing to North hence no error or deviation in your compass vis a vis direction. regards
