Stop by…….life a journey. Not a goal…

Sometimes I wonder how much we struggle, for the necessities posed on us by the desire of being happy.

Toil hard, work to the brim, deep down the ravines and across the thorny paths.

Aghast and eyes wide open…glancing to the point across horizon.
Just like a bunch of grass tied at a unreachable close distance…for the bulls and horses to fetch….

No, time for the appreciation towards the shape of the snow flakes, or the twinkle of a star….

A flower downed for the want of more at the feet of the one above all..
Perhaps a candle for the almighty to make him see us too…

No, care about the fast beating heart…or the gushing blood through the chambers – not for the feeling of love or affinity, but “alas” for the dime…ONE MORE, ONE MORE…

Ignorance to the warmth of the one who brought us in….and stringency of the time towards the one who taught us how to walk.

The engines in us rumbling….the thoughts in us always juggling….and the time utilized yet lost without a purpose.

Even the seasons have their season, even the eternity has a reason…..
Even the birds retreat at a time.

The serenity and the sanctity, a need and a want…..The required and the acquired….
The balance is lost.

Shut down your gears, gaze into the eyes of your dears…
For the life is a journey and not a task.
Love those remembrances as their journey might end soon.
Love those ones who love to be loved by you.

Take a breath, deep within. Feel the air and grass. Hear the chirrup, and streams flow.

And then know, how much we struggle, for the necessities posed on us by the desire of being happy.
