THE DUE DEBTS

THE DUE DEBTS

Man is not born free,

But life itself gives a golden opportunity to get debt-free.

Few Debts are beyond repay,

The reality silences when conscious say.

These debts include the ‘givings’ of parents, siblings, true friends, fore-fathers, received acts of compassion and God’s grace,

Such debts only make our lives braze.

The first debt we owe, is towards our life-givers- our parents,

Maintenance and taking care of them is the portion of debt released apparent.

No matter how high you fly,

No matter how low you feel,

In both the cases, parent’s love and affection will make the wounds heal.

The second debt we owe, is towards our teachers,

Whose training affects our various life features.

A teacher sacrifices his personal life for the social well-being,

On heaven or Earth, one can’t find such a finest human being.

A portion of the debt due towards teachers can be released,

By respecting them life-long and contributing positive in the social deeds

The third debt we owe, is towards our siblings and friends,

As they help in making our lives cleanse.

A friend in need is a friend indeed,

True friends and siblings strive us to do good deed.

Undoubtedly, their conduct is reflected in our personality,

Without which our life goal cannot reach finality.

The fourth debt we owe is towards the ‘act of compassion’ we received,

Without which it is difficult to have a well-knitted human society conceived.

‘Acts of compassion’ includes empathy, fairness, altruism and inter-dependence,

Which itself is rational, just and full of resplendence.

The fifth debt we owe is towards our forefathers,

Man Oh Man! Think because of them we are life-runners.

Our acts of kindness and good conduct help us to release a portion of this debt,

Man Oh Man! Think without their graciousness, it is impossible to drift.

The sixth debt we owe is towards God’s grace,

Without which we cannot climb life maze.

A portion of this debt can be released

By enriching oneself with human values and doing good deeds.

The Supreme force loves all his beings and creatures,

We must practice the enriched human values and not only become its preachers

Man is not born free,

But life itself gives a golden opportunity to get debt free.
