Notes About The Poem

Non contest poem.

Goals

A life without goals, 
Is no life at all, 
Goals may be for wealth and health, 
Or simply for the attainment of eternal bliss. 

Started with a goal to become financially independent, 
Naturally a nice goal to protect my family from going broke, 
Adventures in small business, ended up in disasters, 
Only hard office work kept me surviving forever. 

Now my goals in life are very simple, 
Be happy with whatsoever you have, 
Attain a blissful life, with no greed and lust, 
Give a helping hand and share the pain of people in need.
