Man Know Thyself by RandomBlad: 8:39am On Oct 02, 2014 |
Man know thyself An unexamined life is not worth living" The famous words of Socrates To unravel the mystery in that mantra Self-circumspection is the most obtrusive idea And self-check becomes the inevitable Many do not know themselves Many do not know their seasons Most do not know their raison d' entre For when a man knows himself He is meticulous and careful And comfortably averts trouble and upheavals For when a man knows He is not fecund in money handling He shall never accept a secretary role And when a man knows he is not handy in communication He shall turn down the oratory role For self-circumspection annihilates embarrassment And assuages vituperations and vitriol For when a man knows not himself He knows not his purpose and He knows not his area of potency For when a man knows not himself He knows not his Achilles-heel Or the chink in his armour For when a man knows not himself He knows not how many arrows he has in his quiver And he knows not how much gas he has in his vehicle of life For when a man is ignorant of himself He knows not when to articulate , and when to 'meticulate' Man know thyself Man know thy season Man know thy strength For when a man knows himself He knows when to work and when to play And when to plant and to harvest A man who knows himself cannot be held by the lasso of ignorance or ensnared by the noose of failure For self-circumspection aggrandizes aptness,mitigates shock and adhocracy And pulverizes complacency and cocksureness Man know thyself Man know thy heyday Man know thy lacuna Man know thy hiatus Man know thy area of knack,dexterity,and Immaculateness Man know thy area of ineptitude,impotency and 'talentlessness' For when a man knows himself He knows when to be parsimonious and altruistic niggardly or generous when to be frugal and a blind giver or when to be penurious and exorbitant For a man who knows himself Has little or no regrets For his life is planned and endorsed By the Master A man who self-circumspect's listens to the voice beneath and acts with precision For a man who knows himself Seldom Dillydallies For when a man knows himself He knows just what to do When to operate visibly or surreptitiously over the radar or below the radar When to pray or play And when to read and sleep Man know thyself An unexamined life is not worth living!!! |
