Nothing New Under the Sun

 The sun ascends, the day begins,
And with it, whispers of ancient winds.
A thousand lives, a million dreams,
All unfold in the same old schemes.

Beneath the sky, both vast and wide,
We chase the dreams that time has tried.
Each step we take, each thought we spin,
Echoes of the past we live within.

The rivers flow, the winds they sigh,
Beneath the same vast, endless sky.
What’s old returns, what’s new has been,
All paths we walk, we’ve walked again.

Love and loss, joy and pain,
History repeats, like falling rain.
What once was done, will be again,
In endless circles, without end.

For every song that’s ever sung,
Is but a note from times unsprung.
In cycles old, in patterns spun,
There’s nothing new beneath the sun.

For in this dance of time we’re spun,
The past and future are the same one.
We strive, we fall, we rise, we run—
But in the end, there’s nothing new under the sun.


Description: “Nothing new under the sun” is an idiom that means nothing is truly new, and that things repeat themselves. This poem talks about how human life and experiences stay the same over time, suggesting that everything we do and seek has happened before and will happen again. The phrase "nothing new under the sun" means that, even with new ideas and progress, the main struggles, dreams, and patterns of life remain the same. From the natural cycles to the repeating patterns of human action, the poem highlights how history keeps repeating itself. It's both a reflection on how time seems to make us repeat things and a reminder that life goes on in cycles. The sun, symbolizing time, rises and sets, showing us familiar patterns we can't escape, reminding us that nothing is truly new.

The Few Who Understand

Every day, we meet hundreds of people who wish us hello, hi, and bye. However, there are only a few people who can understand us in our lows and highs. In the noise of the crowd, we often feel lost, drifting through faces, but paying the cost. We share fleeting moments, brief as a sigh, yet crave that connection that reaches the sky. Some offer a smile, while others just stare, but only a few truly show that they care. They listen intently, with hearts open wide, inviting us in, letting feelings collide. Through laughter and sorrow, they walk by our side, their presence a comfort, our fears set aside. So let us treasure those who see through the haze, for they are the light that brightens our days.

Be Like a Seed; When Someone Tries to Compress You, You Make Your Way Out

  Life is not always smooth. Many times, people or situations try to hold us back. They try to control us, limit us, or press us down with negativity, criticism, or challenges. But in those moments, we must remember to be like a seed. A seed is very small and weak in appearance. It gets buried deep under the soil. The soil covers it, presses it from all sides, and keeps it in darkness. But the seed doesn’t give up. Instead, it gathers all its strength, grows roots, and pushes upward. It breaks through the soil and comes out into the sunlight. This is the power of patience, strength, and growth. In life, too, when people try to suppress you with words, actions, or by creating difficulties, don’t give up. Build your strength silently, stay positive, and keep moving forward. Remember, pressure can’t stop a seed from growing. And pressure shouldn’t stop you, either. Be like a seed, and when someone tries to compress you, rise above, break through, and create your own path towards succe...
