Journey of Life

 Life can become so beautiful if we take it as a journey and enjoy it's every moment, without worrying about the destination :) This poem describes how:

How about wandering somewhere aimlessly,
And then getting lost in the beauty of nature?
How about listening sweet chirping of birds, 
And pausing to observe every wonderful creature.

How about observing the flowers basking in the sunshine,
And then smiling, thinking how happily they live.
How about feeling the coolness of winds passing by,
And experiencing solace and peace they generously give.

How about walking on the wet green grass in early morning,
And feeling the freshness in life that would last long.
How about looking at the dancing leaves in the air,
And feeling so happy that you start singing along.

How about making your mind completely free of tensions,
And then leaving all the things on the Almighty thereon.
Life is a journey too short to keep thinking and mourning,
What is gone, is gone, Isn't it better to smile and move on?

  2. i love the freshness of life just after it rains....
    i think we need to make that decision to live free of tension daily...
    we have to learn to let some things go...so we can travel free...

    1. Yes, indeed that brings freshness. I feel it's useless to think about the petty things and worry. Better we should free ourselves and enjoy the journey.
