ஆக்கமுங் கேடும் அதனால் வருதலால் காத்தோம்பல் சொல்லின்கட் சோர்வு.
Aakkamung kedum adanaal varuthalaal / Kaatthompal sollinkat sorvu.
Both gain and loss flow from the same conduct; therefore, to guard well against ruin requires no weariness of speech.
The safeguarding of your estate is not a burden imposed by fate, but a duty that follows naturally from your own deliberate choices—what you build and what you lose are both your work. The discipline of preservation is simply the discipline of attention, not exhaustion.
