We'd asked you, dear readers to tell us what is the one life lesson you would want to share.

Prof Nagaraj Shenoy from Bengaluru has penned his life lessons into a beautiful poem.

You can share your life lessons too! Scroll down to find out how.

You may not get any companions. Someone you chose or liked a lot, may not accompany you.

No point in waiting endlessly. You keep going!

Only know the relevance of the path of your journey.

Your chosen path may be ridiculed by others. You keep going!

There is no point in convincing others that they are wrong.

They maybe right for their planned journey.

Their shoes may not fit you properly.

You choose your path and keep moving!

There may not be any sudden progress in your life as compared to others.

However, fast biker and slow riders all have to stop and meet at a traffic signal.

Initial positions may not give the correct picture of final standings. And final standings only matter. Hence, keep going!

Comfort zone is pretty dangerous. Slip into that seductive trap and you will be back to where you were at the beginning of the journey.

Always keep your progress in mind. Keep going! You will reach your rightful destination.


Write in to getahead@rediff.co.in with 'A life lesson I'd like to share' in the subject line and share your responses along with your NAME, AGE and the place where you LIVE.

Don't forget to attach your picture. We will publish the best entries right here on Rediff.com!
