MAN PROPOSES, GOD DISPOSES

Image
  FROM SAMPATH’S DESK:   MAN PROPOSES, GOD DISPOSES   Man proposes, God disposes; Man designs his life, but HE finalises. Man hides his misdeeds, but HE exposes. Man opens his 'desires' box, but HE closes!   Man thinks he will live forever, but GOD smiles at his ignorance; Man believes he can fool all, but GOD scorns his fake exuberance; Man feels what appears is real, but HE laughs off the incorrect inference; Sometimes, man ignores the existence of GOD, but HE falsifies it by giving him strange experiences!   Man likens life to a rose, forgetting GOD has grown thorns alongside; Man boasts he is the wisest, but GOD hits back and puts his bragging aside; Man claims he has conquered nature, but HE bursts the myth bubbles of this unreal self-pride; Man expects his journey to be hassle-free, but sometimes, it turns out to be a tough and hard ride!   Man wants himself and his loved ones to be happy, but GOD insists on happi...
