Rama Balasubramanian Poet Monoku

What Is Your Priority

"Pandemic gave many lessons. How many did we learn?"
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Running after money ~ not bothering about health and joy

Trying to reach the top ~ not bothering about living joyously

Spending all on satisfaction of senses ~  not saving for future

Hooked on to electronic devices ~ not spending time with loved ones

Bothering more about appearance ~ forgetting inner beauty

Copying others ~ no clue where we are headed

Knowing life is transient ~ living as if we are eternal

We need to reset our life ~  our priorities

Sotto Poet July 3, 2021 at 8:25 AM To suggest that it has improved our lives is an unassailable point. I believe I can now infer that in your opinion, Rama, family, and well-being are the essential elements of one's existence.
