Tirupathi Chandrupatla - Be Known

A tree's known
By its seed
By its fruit
By its flower
By its structure
By its leaves
By its bark
By its root
By its wood
By its shade
And in many
More ways.

Man is known
Not just by physical
Characteristics alone
But
By his thoughts
By his actions
By his values
By his character
By his behavior.

Know this well
And be well known.
