Misrating the Misery !

                       Life is a bumpy journey . . . It has to scale the peaks and traverse the valleys . . . 'Blessings in Abundance' are packed in its Right Pocket by the Creator ... .and . . . In its Left, we accumulate Miseries through our Exploits . . . Blessings instead of merited Gratitude generally receive Indifference from most of us . . . Miseries, however, collect loud shrieks, howls and moving bowels. 

Hard times induce mourning . . . And . . .

Mourning the self-inflicted Misery breeds more Miseries . . . Brings out CHARACTER FAILURE, CONTRADICTIONS, PARADOXES, and lays bare the LIES, MAL-INTENT and MAL-PRACTICES, one had engaged in . . . 

Mourning, therefore, be put on the Shelf and in its place . . . One must . . .  

Look Inward . . . 

Take Stock . . . 

Rubbish the DENIAL . . . 

Repent and Resolve . . . To pay the price for the Past DIRTY DEEDS and NO INDULGENCE in Future . . . 

Go to the Drawing Board . . .

Chalk out a NEW COURSE . . . Free from the Past Package . . . Loaded with the FUTURE FAIR-PLAY . . .

Run the Course . . . Embrace the Result. . . 

Do you Have it  . . . Can you climb the Mountain?

The character is a Costly Commodity Off-Course . . . 

نہیں تو ۔ ۔ ۔

تری شکست ہے ظاہر ترا زوال اٹل

یہی ہے تیرا مقدر کہ اپنی آگ میں جل

کسی طرح سے مٹا دے یہ نقش ہاے یقین

کسی طرح سے بھی اِس شہرِ آرزو سے نکل

ستم کہ ٹوٹ رہا ہے  طلسمِِ حرف و نوا

فغاں کہ بجھنے لگی ہے خیال کی مشعل
