As you sow



“The future depends on what you do today.” Mahatma Gandhi


The past is the mother of the present,
So is the present for the future.
Both good and bad, we inherit
From our predecessors normally.
Their wrongdoings, as nightmares
Haunt us like anything for generations.
With pride, their virtues, we follow
Projecting our chests forward.
Let’s be conscious of what we do today
In order to build a castle of tomorrow.
Let’s take an oath on this occasion 
To safeguard it from crumbling down.
‘As you sow, so shall you reap’ 
Should be our sole motto.
