Acceptance, Joy,
Generosity, submission
And contentment are
The basics of human life
Be positive, be cheerful
With feelings of gratefulness
Shukrana to the Creator
All these together
Make this life worthwhile
Life is not melancholy’s child
Nor is it the offspring of darkness
Nor is it something to be lamented
The den of unfulfilled desires
Frustrations grown out of failures
But an occasion to be celebrated
An opportunity to grab beauty
Even out of what we call tainted
It is to be embraced with positivity
No room for depression & defeat.
