Perhaps the surest test of an individual's integrity is his refusal to do or say anything that would damage his self-respect.

No Matter How Many Apologies Come
A breached integrity is difficult to mend.
Any outreaching extended,
Doesn't heal but offends.
A conscious intention is known for what it is.
No one who says they respect someone,
Will protect themselves...
With a lie that's done.
That's a breach of one's integrity.
No matter how many apologies come.
And for anyone who says that is being sensitive,
Have no respect or integrity to offer.
And surely none there to be known as it is to give.

Traffic Jam: The Trap Of Traffic Light
It's not only test your luck, but also test your patience
It's not only test your guts, but also test your instinct
It's not only test your sanity, but also test your obedience to law
It's not only test your ethics, but also test your fidelity
It's not only test your sight, but also test your reflex
It's not only test your estimation of time, but also test your street knowledge
It's not only test your ego, but also test your kindness
It's not only test your control, but also test your awareness
It's not only test your attitude, but also test your responsibility
It's not only test your priority, but also test your humanity

The Law That Isn't
The law that isn't!
But should be...
Integrity.
Integrity.
All kinds of crime,
Have been defined.
But...
One escapes from a state of mind.
Integrity!
The law that isn't.
Integrity.
integrity!

No Respect
Respect,
Always everybody looking for some
Respect,
Who do you think youre gonna get it from
Respect,
Anybody here deserving of none
Respect,
Tell me what makes you think
Youre not the one
No respect, no respect none
No respect, no respect none
No respect, no respect none
No respect, no respect none
Respect,
Why be concerned with
Public adulation
Respect,
Pat on the back crying
For attention
Respect,
Finding out what it really
Means to me
Respect,
Honor comes only after
Humility

The True Church Aspires To Reach Up To God
I believe in honour God all the best people do
to truly believe in God an individual must
believe in self because true Kingdom of God
is within you. To truly believe in worship God
an individual must love respect others as self
to raise inspire lift others up towards our God.

Up and Down
One, two, three
Three, two and one
Up and down
Up and down
Nothing is known
Till you own
Your mistakes and folly
Then you will enjoy wholly
Who are we as an individual?
Take it normal and causal
There shall be only acceptance
No refusal even at once
So down you fall
But respond to positive call
Go up again
With no more pain

When an individual is protesting society's refusal to acknowledge his dignity as a human being, his very act of protest confers dignity on him.

One of the surest evidences of friendship that one individual can display to another is telling him gently of a fault. If any other can excel it, it is listening to such a disclosure with gratitude, and amending the error.

Browsing Internet
Do you know continuously browsing Internet
can damage your brain?
It can damage your health,
It can damage concentration of your study?
Do you know,
Browsing social network can damage your married life?
Do you know, it can damage your brain?
So, can we control our self of using internet?

The Silence Of Indifference
if we do not write about rape issues
sensitive issues volatile issues explosive issues
if we do not voice our condemnation outrage
we then by default support these evils
with the silence of our indifference
with the silence of our fear cowardice
with our refusal to fight against injustice
with our refusal to fight prejudice inequality
with our refusal to fight for dignity for all humanity

The Damage Is Done
Is there a reason
For things that you say?
The way youre treating me
All the games I wont play
Well its too late, no longer one
Dont want you, the damage is done
Will you miss me
When I leave you behind?
Will you tell your friends
I treated you unkind?
Well its over now, and Im on the run
I dont want you, the damage is done
There have been rumors
That my sense of humor is lacking in some ways
To me thats no reason, its tantamount to treason
See what the judge has to say
You need to find someone half as blind
As I am to your games
And maybe youll find out what its all about
And it can drive you insane
Ooh the damage is done
And now I feel its too late
The damage is done
Its over
Now Im on the run
And baby you and I know
The damage is done
I feel its too late
The damage is done

Morning Thoughts
a true education
reveals the sameness
in the human condition.
a free society
allows the individual
to be individual.
a real community
is as responsible
for the least as for
the most...
the concept of freedom
becomes a reality
when based in mutual respect.
equality demands
equal effort!
how hard is this
for us to understand?
