THOUGHTS GREEN AND CLEAN

 

My dear Atmosphere

I know I must take care

To breathe the pure air;

I know how much it does matter

To drink clean water;

I know it is great worth

To preserve the resources of the earth;

I know how important salt is to me

Hence I must not pollute the sea

I know how important it is for all species to exist

Hence I must protect the virginity of every forest;

I know I benefit in many ways

From the properly protected sun rays;

I know whether be it afar or near

I love my dear atmosphere!

I know I belong to you and you belong to me

To communicate my love I am planting a tree.

— V. Karthikayan

 

Strength for Today

Strength for today is all we need

For there never will be a tomorrow;

For tomorrow will prove another today

With its measures of joy and sorrow. —Dodridge

 

Best Thought

It is said that second thoughts are best. So they are in matters of judgement; but not in matters of conscience. In matters of duty, first thoughts are commonly best; they have more in them of the voice of God. —Cardinal Newman

 

Love is the greatest of all virtues. Genuine love is unselfish and generous. Love desires peace and concord and is ever ready to help and support others. Really good people spread goodness around. They strengthen each other, and do not think, “The other’s weakness is my strength.” They desire not only their own good but also the good of others. If I want to live in peace, I must help others also to live in peace.
