Great indebtedness does not make men grateful, but vengeful; and if a little charity is not forgotten, it turns into a gnawing worm.

A man's indebtedness is not virtue; his repayment is. Virtue begins when he dedicates himself actively to the job of gratitude.

Anybody who has ever been in business, anybody who has ever paid bills, anybody who has ever lived in a serious adult life knows that indebtedness is a killer.

Time relieves

Indebtedness, economic downfall,
Dent in social status, conflict in family,
Fear of punishment, shame and guilt
Might have driven you to the extreme end.
Think that it is the time that has driven you
And that those factors are the tools of time.
The time is not constant; so is the status.

The Real Special Person

honour is feeling you are special
because you have made others
feel good about being themselves

they cannot but turn back to tell you
that you are so special a person

the real special person is one who
wins that admiration from the heart of friends
not through any hint of force, superiority
or indebtedness

The past looms

With me die
Not blood and flesh alone,
Nor bone and skin alone.
With me die
The value of things held,
The love for persons made.
With me die
Gratitude, indebtedness,
And remembrance too.
With me die
Secrets shared and withheld,
Secrets of others, known.
With me die
The castle I have built
Around me over years.
When I die
It is the past that looms,
Not the future in wait

Great Indebtedness

GREAT INDEBTEDNESS

God asked to King Solomon
what he had wanted.
He answered:

WISDOM

God granted him wisdom
then he became the wealthiest king
of his time

I had been asking to God, the same God of King Solomon,
a better life for my wife, for my son.
God lifted me up

AT THE TOP

then I feel I have been among of
the most blessed husband and happiest

Taludoy

he last saw me when i was
four years old, barely able to walk from
a rare disease,
he was father's side kick
in the farm where flood rises
and they would have to use
boats to plant the rice.
he couldn't believe how i have become
so unlike of myself as a boy,
i have a big body now, and speaks
too fluently their own language,
father spoke their language
from the heart
but he was so cruel then
beating him with
a bamboo stick,
he did not cry though as
expected from a brave brown native
of the subanen tribe
known for their resilience.

Learn Ramdas 1

Learn Ramdas,
Whether you are resting in
nondual consciousness or not,
You are product of nondual love,
Remember nondual love that
shaped you only through duality,
Nature and its products are in
Self,
Gratitude is crown of
understanding,
That Understanding of indebtedness,
Duality that come as parents,
relatives and friends,
all may be produce of nondual,
Let SELF be duty bound,
Gratitude is gratification, That never stop one from peace
and spreading love!
Be grateful to all who has
worked according to divine
plan,

Let us put our hearts together

I am thinking of going I am thinking of staying In staying i decided to take my leave Indecision sometimes make you look foolish in deciding the best for your life Life of indecision is indebtedness What i really need is a little love What i really need is a little kiss, kissing my lips within My lips permanently glued with yours Lily in the valley brighten up Beautiful rose flower grew on the mountain dew, in the dewish mountain spot, it makes my head springing up for joy abundantly In the partly blue, whitish part of the cloud cometh the dreams of life As early as i can remember As early as i woke up As the dew continue to fall above the sky As the morning continues to unfold from last night darkness, darkness scaring peoples mind apart, in wondering what the day will bring forth In thickness of the night animals of different sort gave different sounds to scare my mind so deeply that it cause a scar The dog barks The cat purrs The bird whistles The eagle screams The parrot screeches The cock crows The turkey gobbles The owl hoots The lamb bleats The serpent hisses My mind, my thought, my eyes frighten to death, my eyes open open that i could not sleep again All these animals frighten the living hell out of me, the only thing given me assurance of hope before the dawn was set, was your love and tender kisses on my lips Let us put our hearts together as a single entity worthy of emulation Challenges in life come in three
broad categories, easy, difficult and impossible Those who take only the easy path have a safe and boring life Those who take on the difficult path have a tough but satisfying life Those who take the impossible path are remembered Let us put our hearts together my darling
