Between the earth and the sky Life grinds like a grind stone
Crushed between is the men
With his tender flesh and bone.
With his tender flesh and bone.
Some get polished like a diamond
Some pulverised like lime stone
Some will turn into paupersAnd some might sit on the throne.
It depends on the stuff we are made of
Life will grind us like a grinding stone.-Vasant Khisty
As saint Kabir said Life is like a grinding stone. It will grind any thing that comes in between them. People whose stuff are made like diamond will get polished and people with lesser stuff will get ground to dust.
The wheat shall be ground to flour to be consumed by people and the diamond will decorate the hands of the kings. Each has its purpose you choose where to place yourself between the grinding stone.
