Nasty four letter word


courtesy : Rang de Basanti - hindi Movie

Fittest will fit,
Indeed, never a fair game!
Nothing comes free in this world...
Yet everything is free that what is told...
Life, Luck, Lazy, Love
Nasty four letters priceless word is free!
Yet one of the most costly affair!
Few facts in life, I learnt
One must freely confess at least when given a chance
O dear! Told truth and felt I was free for a while
Foreseen free thoughts seldom people buy
Go figure the free-hug!
There lies huge difference between giving freedom and living with a free-will,
Leading to fate chosen is not a fault but by default.
Absolutely risk free return
Finally I even realized after downloading a free movie
Even the movie was not free, it costs me virus in my laptop!
Absolutely there is "free as in free beer" but no 'free lunch' as in!

 Happy Independence Day!

  3. So true. You have nicely playes on the two meanings of the word free. The free movie costing a virus was a master touch enforcing your message that nothing comes free in life. Best of luck for Blog-a-ton. You can find my post here In search of freedom

  7. Very true-in fact, the avarice of the world is such that the word free cannot be pre-fixed to any other; to the contrary, it serves as a suffix to almost everything-sugarfree,guiltfree et al.
    A very unique and memorable take on the topic-enjoyed it thoroughly.

  9. Right, nothing comes free. Indeed, so true.

    For your every wrong action, you have to pay a price. On the contrary, to be successful, to achieve something in life, you have to pay the price of hard work !
