People say

After darkness is dawn

But sometimes the dawn is covered with dark cloud

After the rain, there is rainbow

But sometimes there is flood

Although tough times never last

But tough men do, there are instances

When tough times are over

Some do not live long enough to enjoy it

Just like striking a lottery

One dies of over joy or heart attack

God helps those who help themselves

Unfortunately most people’ lives

Are like a limbo rock

Rocking, rocking all the times

Before one problem ends

Another one crops up

Most of it because of oneself

If a person knows how to rectify oneself

And let bygone be bygone

Forget the harm done

Cut off the hatred and forgive

There will be likely beautiful dawn and rainbow

Do not live like a limbo rock

Dance the waltz, it is graceful

Feel the love

I had a relative who recently passed away with cancer

He was a labourer who worked very hard to bring up the children

During the last few days of his life he told me when I visited him

How sad he was because after all these years of sufferings

Just about to be able to relax and enjoy life

Because children had grown up and earning livings

And he did not have to work anymore

He had to go, how pitiful!

Life on earth is such and many are like this

After all the limbo rock of life, one did not get to have peace

Then have to go and do not know where

The karma of life just takes charge

If my relative had received Tao, I would be most happy for him

As his sufferings as repayments were over and home he had gone

He was a good man, never had known to do any bad things

But good may not be enough

We have to do more than good

I do not know where he is, his soul.
