Vazhkaye porkalam!

This is a poem from a friend's status message(thanks, varsh!) It was succinct yet conveyed the message! All kudos for the original author

vazhkaye porkalam,
vazhndudaan parkanum,
porkalam maaralam,
porgal daan marumo

[English translation:
Life is a battlefield
We have to live and see the end
The battlefield can change
But do the battles ever change?]

Annie, long time! Nope... I'm not becoming philosophical. Just that these four lines captured the essence of life so well :)

Lavender, true! But does the fact that battles are being fought every single moment change?
