Why is the destination overrated?
Why is the journey underrated?

Why is the origin important?
Identity a necessary endorsement?

What if we focus on learning en route
& Spreading cheer in our life commute

Not fussing over ‘Arriving’ & definite goals
By always ‘judging’ and trading our souls

Opinions are personal
Sharing is strictly optional

Society is but a tool
Not collective mindsets to mock and fool

We’ve the potential to float above
And the capability to simply love

May not be simple but expand, we MUST
Before we all end up in DUST!

      Thank you for your generous compliments. As you might have noticed, ‘preachy’ is all that I can. I’ve been striving to find out ways of expressing without getting preachy. But that’s an uphill task I guess. We keep trying.
