Our act of living has an outcome
Some define it as a purpose
If it becomes pursuit of income
Redefine it, with a discourse
In the act of setting up a wakeup alarm
Outcome we expect, is to rise
The act, intentionally, to snooze it with an arm
Purpose, neither met nor wise
Outcome we expect, is to rise
The act, intentionally, to snooze it with an arm
Purpose, neither met nor wise
In the act of hearing someone speak
Outcome we expect, is to listen
The act, inbetween, to respond to a beep
Purpose, neither met nor brazen
Outcome we expect, is to listen
The act, inbetween, to respond to a beep
Purpose, neither met nor brazen
In the act of caring someone in pain
Outcome we expect , is healing
The act, though, of doing it for ample gain
Purpose, neither met nor appealing
Outcome we expect , is healing
The act, though, of doing it for ample gain
Purpose, neither met nor appealing
In the act of responding to our need
Outcome we expect, is joy
The act of, voluntarily, giving in to our greed
Purpose, neither met nor coy
Outcome we expect, is joy
The act of, voluntarily, giving in to our greed
Purpose, neither met nor coy
Our act of living has an outcome
Some define it as a purpose
When it becomes pursuit of income
Redefine it, with a discourse
Some define it as a purpose
When it becomes pursuit of income
Redefine it, with a discourse

I wrote this on a my travel back from Bengaluru to Chennai on 11th Nov. I had made a personal choice to travel in the common man coach - decison was an outcome of minimalist living. The cost of this travel was 1/20th of the cost of the same trip that I used to do by air, when employed.

Outcome matters for everything we do in life, be it brushing our teeth or baking a birthday cake. Personal hygiene, purpose of former and show of affection or cost savings could be for the latter. As long as the purpose is clear followed by genuine effort, a positive outcome is more or less guaranteed.
