Desire



By the will
By the power
And by the patience
We can make true
Any desire.

If all your desires
Are really difficult to make true
Step up and go ahead by saying
I can do it, I can finish it
And through that I can achieve my goal.

As we know,
we are ruled by our desires
What desires want, we have to do
But we have to be different from now
We have to make these desires a puppet
And what we will say
Desires have to do.

The life is full of desires
We never stop desiring
In our life, we come across many desires
We complete some of them
But what about others?
That make our life full of sorrow and dissatisfaction.
Many of the desires are not completed
In our whole life
And we remain dissatisfied with our lives.

Desires are good to have in our life
But our strategy should be to have less desire,
Less desire will make us to complete them
And once we complete those desires
We will be happy and satisfied by our God gifted Life.
So to be happy
The golden principle is to desire less.
