कबीर थोड़ा जीवना, माड़ै बहुत मँडान I सबही ऊभा मेल्हि गया, राव रंक सुलतान II
Despite our most careful planning, the Road of Life is unpredictable. While we go about planning our days and lives, we sometimes learn that God or the universe or whatever we call our higher power has another plan for us. Our best-laid plans in life can be upended by unexpected changes, which could be either disappointing or exhilarating. Personal or other setbacks, losses of loved ones, illnesses or accidents, broken hearts or tortured souls, are not uncommon occurrences in our lives. Downturns are not permanent defeats, and successes are not ultimate triumphs. How we face our setbacks, with resilience, and accept our successes, with grace, are important measures of our worth as individuals.
"In this composition Kabir talks about man's frantic yet futile effort of embracing uncertainty of future. The next moment is guaranteed to no one, yet man never fails to make big plans. It is so aptly said, "Man makes plans....and God laughs." No matter who makes plans for future, a King or a pauper, for eventually everything in the world is time bound, nothing lasts forever."
