UNFATE

Should destiny prevent me
From reaching my heights
Should it lay down the rules
For setting my sights

My environment may be shaped
By divine complexities
But what I make of my life
Is rooted in my tenacity

Nothing can stand in the way
Nothing can obstruct
When I have set a course
My very own construct

I shall not allow my DNA
To limit my space
For evolve I must
With spirit and grace

Why should I be governed
By what fate has defined
When I can dare to play
By what I have defied

  1. Good one Subir!
    I once again remember the Fate challenging words by a Hindi poet –

    Yeh gardisshhey ayyam tu mujhse naa ulaj, Maine tho har haalaat mein jeeney ki kasam kaayi hai!!

    Well stated Subir!!

  2. Destiny is nothing but the cobweb built around ourselves by our karma of the former lives as well of this life. Yes, it can be transcended by accomplished yogies with stong will ,endurance & perseverence. Markandey Mahamuni, Savitri are among some of the few who could conquer over their destinies.
