The poem below is written by Rudyard Kipling, one of the famous authors known for his short stories, the most famous being "The Jungle Book". He also wrote a few poems too - guess what, he was in Bombay most of his life. I believe he was born and brought up here. This poem was written for his son who lost his life in a war. He based it on the character of his son whom he loved and came to respect.
Though it is based on a person's character, I think that this tells us how a person should behave in most of the situations that life brings us across. It teaches a lot about life and how we can be face it. It always gives me strength - whenever I am in pain or sorrow, I think about this and these lines give me the strength need to go on living and with pride!
