Beneath the Willow Tree
There were willow trees in the corner of our mustard field. It is nearby the bank of a river. Beneath the willow I’d sat down, escaping from my routine life. The cold sand waiting for the warm sun rays, until they featured in the stipulated alignment of the earth and sun. Serene beauty, with reflections
Born With A Purpose
Irrespective of what we do, if we serve our purpose in life, we’d be a blessed person in the end. Our life, which is the means, would justify the(our) end.

Selfishness and Sufferings
There is no exception to our selfish ambition while in sufferings. Selfishness needs to be tamed, and that’s the hard part. Selfishness resulted in suffering. And it is true the other way round.
