In the Mile of a Day

In the Mile of a Day I remember
The smiles in miles,
Which compared with the streaks of sweat.
But in every season there's still a reason to
Still kiss the smile of memories.

There might be a genuine cloud of doubt,
And an earnest desire to know why it is so,
But walking in the landmine of thoughts Burdened with heavy pregnant questions,
Things still happen the way they do,
Without regard to our feelings.

Yes! A lot will still happen in this space,
But are we to be deterred to lose the locus of our focus?
Or are we required to stay awake and be eternally vigilant?
Even so, how cautiously careful can we be careful to be carefree?

Although we cannot avoid every happening, we must be mindful of our powers, capabilities and frailties.

As human beings, whatever happens on this journey, please choose kindness over drama; and selflessness over selfishness.

In fact, when we choose calmness over anxiety; or generosity over meanness;
When we choose forgiveness over stubbornness; 
And when we celebrate merits over mediocrity;
We would be building a better society, and a beautiful country for ourselves and our children's children.

Indeed, miracles will happen when we dedicate ourselves to live these values and do the right things to ourselves.

Let's endeavours to maximize the gift of our presence here today, while appreciating every passing moment.

Kindly take care and keep the peace.
And please remember to be good to yourself and your neighbours.

Greetings
