Muddy stinking sub – humans
Brushed the shiny sparkling surface of her soul
With the deadly filth
produced by their own rotten minds
The least they knew
the more they bragged.
Muddy stinking sub – humans
in the garb of borrowed humanness
cursed the humanity all along.
Float free!
That’s the dream.
But the chains are embedded in the skin.
You know they will copy,
they will follow
but won’t acknowledge
A time will come when they will reach
trundling, while you just raced.
Meanwhile the deep chasm between
Will be filled with hatred
because of the inevitable truth
that you say you know
And they just feign ignorance.
The realisation just takes time
for some and for the rest later.
Take that anguish out
Nothing then remains..
The anguish that has been nurtured,
by the seemingly innocent fires blazing around
Just the empty shell of a human
adorns the dreary land
The journey that lasts forever – from the realm of our worldly existence, to beyond everything ; can be undertaken only with oneself. When do you want to embark on this journey? It is completely your choice. There is no time barrier or time limit. It is simply that you get a call from within you, and you know it is the time. It can happen early or late in life; and it may never happen for many who fail to recognise the ‘call’.
How is this journey connected to leadership? The truth is that it is only a leader, who is the person, who has already embarked on this journey. This leader might be working anywhere, doing anything, impacting whomsoever, but he or she is onto it. Somewhere deep within themselves they know that their ‘purpose’ is bigger and worth leading others towards it. This purpose, when ceases to be only for oneself and takes others as well into its ambit, is the bigger purpose that is much more meaningful.
To commence this journey one needs a complete evaluation of one’s own beliefs and values, which might spring a whole bunch of surprises at once, and send one on the backfoot probably. Here comes the real mental strength that one possesses and also the ingrained preparedness for getting onto the launchpad of leadership that takes one onto its wings. This is a completely new beginning and also a total break from all the undesirable mental blockades of the past.
