Lately in Daphne's awesome blog "Joyful Days" I read some posts about personal creeds. "What are these personal creeds?" me too was curious just like you. And in there she has discussed about it clearly and not only that but also she has given her own creed as an example. She says "When you know where you are headed,you walk purposefully, quickly,with big strides. You may enjoy the scenery as you pass by, but every step you take has a meaning because it brings you one step closer to your purpose".
The post "How to write a personal creed" was so inspiring that I couldn't help myself to writing my own one.(If you read it you too will feel so :-) ) Though I was bit busy, finally put some thoughts together and created my own one(half of it was created inside a bus when I was returning home from the university :-) )Thanks Daphne for the wonderful idea.
So just enjoy reading and think what your creed is.
I won't shatter at grief or sorrow
since they are sent to us
by divine mercy
for our own perfecting
I cremate all defeats and frustrations
which are nothing than history
resurrect as a phoenix
who rise from the ash
I carve my name in people's hearts
by trying my best to
make this earth a better place
by being unforgettable
before I leave to the
womb of the earth
I love everyone
at least I try to do so
because all of us are human beings and
neither me nor you are perfect
so we must learn to forgive
I simply live my life
whilst filling others' lives with happiness
each day is a gift to me
from the heaven....
