Comparison is a game, a trap we often fall, As we measure our worth against others, we feel small. But the truth is, each of us is on our own path, And our journey’s unique, a story meant to last. We look at others, see their success and fame, And feel we’re lagging, playing a losing game. But what we don’t see is the work they put in, Their struggles and hardships, the battles...
Your classmates: where are they?
Where are your classmates,The counsellor asked,And the gentleman complied,He searched and gathered,Their present state and fate. Some were rich beyond measure,Some were poor and destitute,Some were sick and suffering,Some were imprisoned or lost.

Choices made, paths taken, impact unknown – the road not taken by robert frost
The Road Not Taken invites us to reflect on the idea that sometimes taking the road less traveled can lead to unexpected and interesting experiences

Risk Not Taken – The risk we took, the chance we met
Risk Not Taken, a choice we make,
A chance we miss, a path we forsake.
For every choice, there's a consequence,
A road not taken, a life left hence.
VISION: A CHANCE TO LIVE, A LIFE ANEW

The Visionary’s Treasure Trove – The Value of Vision is not always clear
The Value of Vision is not always clear, But without it, we may disappear. For where there is no vision, so they say, The people wander aimlessly, and lose their way. Vision is the light that guides us through the dark, It gives us hope, and ignites the spark. A spark that turns into a flame, And fills our hearts with passion and acclaim. Without vision, we stumble in the night, Lost and...
