Every night is chased by a brighter day
So do not be afraid of life, they say
One should enjoy maximum pleasure
Who does so gain a real treasure
People who detest laughters and smiles
For them happiness lies but many a miles
Life is a name of ups and down
Who holds his nerves wear a crown
Don’t just watch dark side of a photo
Be optimistic and pragmatic is my motto

Pity de nation dat is full of beliefs and empty of religion. Pity de nation dat wears a cloth it does not weave, eats a bread it does not harvest, and drinks a wine dat flows not from its own wine-press. Pity de nation whose statesman is a fox, whose philosopher is a juggler, and whose art is the art of patching and mimicking. Pity de nation whose sages r dumb wid years and whose strong men r yet in the cradle. Pity de nation divided into fragments, each fragment deeming itself a nation.-KG
