Silence

Why is it that the mouth can’t speak what the ‘Heart’ always wants;
Why is it that we say something else and the mind always taunts?

Why some conversations are incomplete even after so many talks;
While certain moments become eternal just by casual walks.

Why can’t we always understand what one means to say;
Why is it easy to assume about things which are far away?

Perhaps the only answer to all of them comes through “Patience”;
The capacity to be able to hear within; which is the power of “Silence”.

Listen to this voice and one day everything will make sense;
It will make you pure and you won’t need any defense.

(An Essay)A person's worth nowadays seems to be judged according to social status and material possessions. Old-fashioned values, such as honor, kindness and trust, no longer seem important.

‘Man is not of what he is but of what he becomes.’ It’s not about the quantity but the quality of life that matters. However it is a harsh reality of the modern society that a luxurious life is prioritized over ethical values. The most crucial reason behind this craze for attaining social standard is “Materialism”- a phenomenon so popular that people have forgotten the value of life and fear of death. The standard of living today is dependent on the ownership of plush and fancy assets that one possesses, rather than following the path of honesty and peace. The matter has worsened with the global increase in corruption rates. The fact the human wants are unlimited makes the scenario more vulnerable to crime thus leading towards a situation of unrest. Furthermore, the society today mocks at people who stand up for their rights or fight for the underprivileged. The fatal acts of terrorism around the globe are nothing but a rebellious movement from the victims of discrimination and ex...

A time to be born, and a time to die; A time to plant, and a time to pluck up that what is planted; A time to kill, and a time to heal; A time to break down, and a time to build up; A time to weep, and a time to laugh; A time to mourn, and a time to dance; A time to caste away stones, and a time to gather stones together; A time to embrace, and a time to refrain from embracing; A time to get, and a time to lose; A time to keep, and a time to cast away; A time to rend, and a time to sew; A time to keep silence, and a time to speak; A time to love, and a time to hate; A time of war, and a time of peace.
