The Warrior – III

-

One night seeing terrible pain in the princess’ shiny big eyes
From within the warrior came intense guilt cries.
His eyes finally open and his conscience shaken
The warrior’s decision was taken.

“I am a warrior”, he thought
And looked at his armour and sword long forgot!
Another war need to be fought
For to his princess he had to prove his worth.

“You must let me go”, he said
Avoiding her eyes which for his stay begged
Those eyes could sway him, he knew
And he must go before his love’s resistance grew.

He wore his armour, sharpened his sword
Reined his horses and towards the darkness rode.
This war was not meant for him to die
No matter how hard the shadows would try.

The princess’ love was his armour
And loyalty was his sword.
With determination in heart, towards his enemy he did run
And made a quiet promise to return before the morning sun.

Where all negative things shall come to an end And enemies shall transform into friends And there shall be no sorrow or pain When the Golden Bird will fly again. When the sun would rise every dawn, There shall be nothing to improve  upon, Where peace, harmony and joy would flow in the form of streams To make...

Self Discipline: The Secret to Success is Revealed

Imagine a car, a sleek, stylish formula one car with a powerful engine but without a steering wheel. This car may have immense potential, it may be the best featured of all the cars gearing up for a race. But without a steering, all the potential is a waste as the car would never get a direction and hence never reach the finish mark. If this car has to race, there must be a steering installed first. Without a steering if the one races in this car, definitely the car would meet with an accident causing damage to itself and may be to others. Same is the case with people. One may be the most creative, the most scholarly, the best actor, the best speaker or simply putting it, the most talented person around. But if there is no discipline to steer the talent, to tap into the immense potential, one can never win the race. Discipline needs to be inculcated first for one to be successful in life. If one fails to do so, all the talent is a waste and when such people look behind, th...
