A poem By Dr.Tahseen Hussain,MD

A little more, a little less—
Material wealth is just a test.
A full stomach, a peaceful night,
Are blessings shared by all alike.

So do not mourn, and do not fret;
Be thankful for the life you’ve met.
Happiness comes, for all to see,
When we serve others selflessly.

Success is not an overflowing chest,
Nor riches piled within the nest.
For wealth and fame, though they may bless,
Can bring along their arrogance.

True success is a different game:
Not measured by fortune, wealth, or fame.
This world is a test of thanks and grace—
Of patience through life’s changing pace.

If life is measured by material things,
We join the race that fortune brings.
We chase the more, we seek the best,
And never find the soul at rest.

The years we live, the things we learn,
The wisdom gained at every turn—
That is the wealth that makes us whole,
The nourishment and growth of soul.

Why gather toys that cannot stay,
When all must leave them one day?
What we possess, we leave behind;
What we become remains in mind.

True success is to be kind,
To keep our humanness in mind;
To live with grace, with faith and prayer,
And leave a little kindness everywhere.

And when our golden years arrive,
Let gratitude help us truly live.
With fewer wants and fewer fears,
We learn the treasure of our years.

When pain is gone and worries cease,
When health is granted, life is peace.
And when the helping hand is near,
There is less reason left for fear.

Medicine comes when it is needed,
And helping hands are freely heeded.
Food and care are gifts of grace—
Blessings provided in life’s later days.

So enjoy your golden years,
Rich or poor, without your fears.
For wealth and poverty disappear
As death approaches, drawing near.

The grave makes equals of us all—
The mighty rise, the mighty fall.
The billionaire and pauper lie
Beneath the same unending sky.

No wealth, no fame, no earthly prize
Can follow us beyond the skies.
We wait in silence, all the same,
Until the trumpet calls our name.

So take a little, give a little;
Live with a heart both kind and gentle.
A little more, a little less—
In gratitude lies life’s true wealth and blessedness.
