As You Go Through Life

Posted on 27th Nov 2020 by rohit kumar

Don't look for the flaws as you go through life;

  And even when you find them,

It is wise and kind to be somewhat blind

  And look for the virtue behind them.

For the cloudiest night has a hint of light

  Somewhere in its shadows hiding;

It is better by far to hunt for a star,

  Then the spots on the sun abiding.

 

The current of life runs ever away

  To the bosom of God's great ocean.

Don't set your force 'gainst the river's course

  And think to alter its motion.

Don't waste a curse on the universe

  Remember it lived before you.

Don't butt at the storm with your puny form,

  But bend and let it go o'er you.
