My Take

Read more below

The Telegraph Online Published 25.05.12, 12:00 AM

Never give up....

Often I wonder why I’m here

Why should I work hard?

Why endeavour

To attain goals which seem to have no meaning?

Instead of sitting idle, or get busy dreaming?

Often I wonder what I am up to?

Whose advice should I seek? Whom should I go to?

Why does life seem so boring?

Why do I feel completely useless?

Why do people call me lazy and aimless?

Everything around me seems so dull,

I feel nothing but numb and null.

All desires are dead, all wishes drowned

In the incessant stream of tears.

How I wish I could fly to a land,

Where nobody could force me to do things I don’t want.

How I wish I could be all alone,

In a world full of joy, yet devoid of human bone.

How sometimes I hate being a human,

For being so implies nothing but restrictions.

Restricted from flying, swimming, jumping,

Restricted from playing all day.

These are the thoughts which all of us have...

But every time I fail, I just move on,

With a smile on my face

And determination in my bones.

Hang on, even the roughest way,

In the end will surely lead to a ray —

A ray of happiness and hope,

Which would be the beginning of an everlasting, beautiful day.

Thus to sum up, never give up, my friends.

For, life is an exciting journey without any end.

A journey in which numerous lessons have to be learnt,

By one and all, including you, my worthy friend.
