Purpose in life

IMG_20180819_172258Every single person or thing comes to our lives and has a reason behind it,
And a purpose to fulfill.
As long as it is with you,it keeps serving it’s purpose,
And then comes a day when it finishes it’s work and leaves with profound effects on us.
Maybe a lesson , realisation or anything that could be of benefit in ours lives.
A year begins and ends,
A day does the same.
We were born and we will face death someday.
A seed grows into a sapling,then into a tree until it’s branches fall off and the leaves begin to wither.
And then gradually it’s trunk too grows old and is either chopped off or breaks down on it’s own.
Be it the honeybee or the humming bird,
Fishes swimming free or the dog in your home or across the street.
All serve a purpose either way.
The sunlight or the snowfall,
The rain falling down of the Brook flowing continuously without our concern.
All are engrossed in their purpose.
Much things left uncared and unnoticed but still helping us unknkowingly.
And so much more to write…
But maybe we are far too busy to observe them,
As we too are diligent in searching and serving our purpose in life.

Time and it’s ways

“Time flies”we say it so often.
But dies time really fly?
Or are we moving slow?
The clock is ticking in it’s usual pace,
It’s hands rotating around the centre of it’s face.
These questions are hard to answer,
It takes a lot if time to ponder.
Then again at times we say,
“Time just doesn’t seem to pass.”
The more we look at it,
the more it seems to last.
How is it possible then?
A day continuing got twenty-fours can neither exceed it’s duration,
Nor can it’s length be shortened.
Waiting takes a longer time,
While working we have no time,
We take time as we want it to be.
We say, “time flies,runs,slips,passes…”
When it is we who aren’t working accordingly,
While time unaware of out thoughts is busy,
And continues to move in it’s usual way…
Without waiting for us,
Without making it’s stay,
Only making us wonder the answer to the questions that lay.

Perfection in flaws

Why are we searching for perfection?
Why do we don’t want the flaws?
We need every single thing and every single day to be perfect…
We try running away from mess,
We try hiding and mending all our flaws and imperfections.
We suppose perfection makes us happy but then thought deep, does it do that?
Flaws, mistakes,wrong decisions…
All account for the worser part of our lives,
While,perfection and goodness and good luck are the better ones.
But can we just try and see that there is perfection in all…
Can we not pretend and try not to be perfect?
As it is said, ‘we are perfect as we are’
And then why do we change ourselves to suite with everything that is happening.
Why don’t we see and know that there is perfection in us and around us?
Why don’t we learn that there is perfection in flaws?
