Those who throw stones in your path,
Do not subject them to your wrath!
Don’t be riled by their excess,
Let those stones be your stepping stones to success!
Life has a way of throwing challenges at you,
To prove your mettle is all that you have to do!
Let all impediments in your way bring out in you the best,
You have to pass with flying colours this litmus test!
Be unstoppable in your onward march,
Let your redoubtable will perk you up and charge!
In the battle of life, have the courage to be on the top,
Why just throw up your hands in despair and mop?
Never say die and never give up,
If need be, have the stomach even with the devil to sup!
On the far away horizons fix your unwavering gaze,
Let nothing stop you whether it is the densest fog or disorienting haze!

True, Professor Saheb. One should never loose sight of one’s goal irrespective of what the naysayers say or the insurmountable challenges one may face.
