Make a move, A Relentless and Persistent move

Identified with Identity

"Where the mind is without fear
and the head is held high,
Where Knowledge is free,
Where the world has not been
broken up into fragments
by narrow domestic walls,
Where words come out from
the depth of truth,
Where tireless striving stretches
its arm towards perfection,
Where the clear stream of reason
has not lost its way
Into dreary desert land of Dead habit,
Where the mind is led forward by
thee into ever widening thought & action,
Into that heaven of freedom, my father,
Let my Country Awake"

Life:An incessant struggle

"Always, Yes Always
there have been
Consistent, Persistent, less often significant
efforts
Sometimes for Sustenance,
Manytimes for dream so oblivious.
Tried and Tired
Annoyed and Stupefied
at the very worthiness of life!

Never had imagined before
I would meet life Again.
But
the longing I never imagined
I could feel
seems unlocked Now
by an encounter
with Life itself."
