THIS WORLD

 This journey called life has taught me that, indeed the start is difficult but so is the foreseeable future of which we are so uncertain. Courage is needed at every endeavour of our life because this is the world we live in, testing and challenging us at each step so that we don't rust out in this ever-changing world.

You know when I look back I now see how peaceful all of it was. Just chilling in the summer with our friends, no care in mind, enjoying every bit of what life has to offer and now those friends are busy pursuing their career to make their life perfect. But I can't stop seeing the irony in this, people let go of this perfect life to "live the life of their dreams" and then after reaching that dream they get to know that they have been living the life of our dreams all along but that's how the way this world is.

Remember the time when our home was our world and everything we cared was within the confines of that teeny-tiny place. Then life happened to take us in with its flow to uncertain places in search of a perfect world for us consisting of good friends who would support and love you unconditionally and make your perfect world complete but can't you see that we already left them behind just to live with the code of this world.

We leave this comfort and our childhood friends and go to faraway places for education and job to live a better life not knowing this is a dangerous path to tread upon as we could lose on our identity and become that miserable person who hates everything around him. This world is an interconnection of ideas each one unique reflecting it's diversity. We hinder this diversity and our happiness by pursuing goals not in sync with our soul but for the sake of others and in some cases to satisfy our ego that I am doing better than him.

If we understand that we are already living the life of our dreams and show some gratitude then only we could find our real passion, living the happy and peaceful life we all desire, in turn making this so-called cruel world a better place as it is in our hands only to make our world perfect.

P.S shout out to all my friends for making my life perfect.
