I sat down and took out time today,
To reflect on my life, my past days.
Many events had a déjà vu feeling,
Yeah, many things had been repeating.

I wondered why, life everyday,
Had turned out, to be this way.
Life had been simple yet confusing,
Sometimes straight yet twisting,
It had been dull yet so bright,
And been noisy yet so quiet…
When I said right, life took me left.
It made me busy, when I wanted rest.
When I thought “Yeah, that’s the rite door,
my destiny,”
Life seemed to have something else in store
for me.

But then, something I realized;
Although the tune was different,
The song somehow seemed right.
And even if I’d be given 3 wishes,
To make life unlike now it is;
I would never ever change it,
because it’s better than I’d aimed it.

It isn’t so flawless, sometimes a total mess,
but it’s perfect for me…
Yeah, I love the way my life, awry yet right,
has turned out to be…



When life gives you a hundred reasons to cry, show life that you have a thousand reasons to smile... :D

It takes an awareness of self to understand that what we are is exactly what we are supposed to be. I liked this.

To mimic is a form of praise unless
you have no thoughts of your own

My life so far has been pretty much like yours and yes we do come to the point of knowing that we are exactly where we're supposed to be.  I still find, however, that I rebel a bit but it doesn't get me anywhere.

Enjoyed the read!
