White Paper




When one's born he's a white paper


Fresh and clean out of production,


Waiting to be written on,


Waiting for time's experimentation.


.




The white paper gets known by


Whats on it, a painting,


Few well written verses,


Few scribblings or all in proportions.


.



A white paper thats rejected and not used,


Turns out a dead orphan.


A white paper thats rejected but used,


Turns out a used orphan.


.



A white paper thats scribbled on,


Turns out an unwanted ruffian.


A white paper thats written on,


Turns out a civilised human.


.



A white paper thats scribbled and then written on,


Turns out a social parasite.


A white paper thats written and then scribbled on,


Turns out a rebel.


.



A white paper thats used,


Neither written nor scribbled,


Is what that achieves its purpose,


Its painted!


.



A white paper thats used,


And has all the above in proportions,


A jack of all trades,


Is a confused soul!


.



A white paper thats (only)painted,


Exibits freedom,purpose and value.


Its a joy to all.


Its glorious colours shining!


.



A white paper thats painted,


Gets treasured and respected,


For the work in it.


Making it proud of itself.


.



A white paper thats painted,


Brings joy and happiness,


To its creators.


Making them proud of themselves.


.



A white paper thats painted,


Brings beauty and pleasure,


To its many beholders.


Making them happy of this sheer joyful experience.

.



A white paper thats painted,


Brings beauty and inspiration,


To its spectators.


Making them wanting to be a painted paper!

Afterword:

A social parasite is nothing but a refined ruffian thats we can predominantly find in our society nowadays. Some examples are our political netas, read corrupt politicians(many with known criminal backgrounds, some convicted too), corrupt professionals like lawyers,doctors,teachers and engineers (you can find a chunk of this in the govt. sector), unethical businessman/industrialists and any human whose existence entitles to others suffering (his gain is proportional to others pain) can be termed a parasite.



A civilsed human does not have much significance in todays world as he is nothing but a raw material that oils the corrupt corporates and governments (watch Zeitgiest for more clarity on this),he is as much a part of corruption, just that he isn't much of a decision maker on how it is carried out,just a evolved follower of the same (check the previous blogs for videos explaining why?). Thus he is inferior to a painted person.



Some of the examples of a painted person are people who do their work out of joy and not any monetary benefits, sportpersons who enjoy their sport and would play even if there isn't much monetary benefits. The doctors who work for the downtrodden in the remote corners of the world. The actors who enact plays that are done for sheer joy and not much commercial benefits. The artists who perform their art as a way of their expression and nothing else. And many more whose life is like that of a candle in darkness, their fire brings light and can add fire to others life too!

Now a question- Can all be a painted paper?





The answer to this- I wish this was possible, the world would definetely be what it was meant to be, the true heaven. I still feel one can be a painted paper no matter what stage of life he is in if he is lucky to be with a life artist (an enlightened person or his teachings through some form) for a while, who can change the scribblings and verses to colours, forming art thus making the one valued and wanted by all. Most importantly one exibits freedom of thought and action, a birthright denied to all, as one is more or less controlled by his social framework and not entirely by his thoughts. A pure thought without selfishness is true freedom of existence in action! - Santosh Gopi Nair
