One Art

"The art of losing isn't hard to master;

so many things seem filled with the intent

to be lost that their loss is no disaster."

@dolby
Losing your mind can be advantageous at times :D You can commit incivilities and give excuses. Even the Indian Penal Code exempts you :P

Yup! One can definitely draw strength from that. But it ends there, for loss is something we must willingly accept, because it is the most natural thing after life on earth.
