Think or sink!

Life and grammar.

1. Life is an active voice.

Think of what you can cause to happen

and not what things do to you.

2. Life is in the Indicative mood and not in subjunctive mood.

See things as they are.

3. Life is present tense.

Not yesterday, not tomorrow.

4. Live in the First Person.

Use your own intelligence.

5. Live in Singular number.

Act according to your own conscience and not for the applause of the crowd.

6. Verb Conjugate.....To love.

தன் கணவன் காணாத காட்சிகளைத் தானும் காண விரும்பாமல்

"என் கண்களாக இருந்து கொண்டு நீ காண்பதை எல்லாம் எனக்குச் சொல்லு!"

மூக்கு, நாக்கு, தொண்டைகளில் அவ்வளவு பிரச்சனைகள் வருவதில்லையோ பிழைத்தோமோ!

"Would you rise into the world?
You must work while others amuse themselves.

Are you desirous of a reputation for courage?

Nobody will use other person's experience :nono:
