I seem to wonder when people talk about their future career plans
It seems just stating one’s preference for a choice of an engaging vocation
It is a simple matter of how you spend your time while earning your living
It seems all a fuss stressing on clarity on long-term goals to facilitate your survival
On one hand, they say, life is dynamic and you need to adapt and change
On the other hand, the jargons kill one’s enthusiasm ensuring you go out of range
It is not just a matter of motivation, preferences changes with time
So why be finicky and insist on past credentials that may actually be past its prime
It seems that man is just a function of academic background and previous roles undertaken
His life experiences have no value when people lack clarity on competency that matters
Each man is compartmentalized and in the rat race assigned a given laboratory tag
It hardly seems to matter that action or inactions actually induces a groaning gag
Each man seems to only bother about his unique fight for survival
And acknowledges his grudging acceptance of conscious self denial
He seems to lack the energy or burning desire to break down the wall
He is safely entrenched in his comfort zone envisioning the long haul
The daily factors around us urge one to periodically evaluate and think
Life is never static and what worked may in the future no longer tick
So why be rigid and develop entrenched self defeating patterns
When you can openly embrace the Universe and nourish your own farm
The challenge comes when we seek external affirmation for our different views
Wisdom may not be a gift for those who hardly make time to look at the morning dew
As one sets sail on the Universal Ship called the Unknown Journey of Life
It may be better to live up to your calling rather than having to endure strife!

Give and Take
It seems so very logical the concept of give and take
To catch a wink of sleep you need to let go of being awake
In order to fill up the glass again you need to empty it first
To create a new future and reality you need to have a thirst
How very uncomfortable it would be to continuously pile on food
How very unwieldy it would be to wear multiple layers of clothing
In order to get walking you need to give up the comfort of a seat
To embrace a new idea you need to avoid developing cold feet
Imagine filling up your pockets with all the money in the world
You can only aspire to stack in your pockets as much they can hold
Should you aim to go against nature resources will get drained
Sooner than later lack of mobility may leave you behind very pained
To wear a different colour and shade you need to give up set patterns
To think better you need to let your beliefs routinely face up to the knife
The shift in gears in your automobile requires you to commit to a certain motion
It requires you to commit to the long haul whatever be the levels of corrosion
The night gets left behind as you look forward to the day
The light is welcomed as you leave behind the dark bay
As you drive down the tunnel looking for the final opening
You need to be convinced that nature intends the bird to fly its wings!

Watch Your Weight
Spring season is back and there is a chirpy feel in the air
It is no wonder that one may feel like gorging in the fair
But truth better told heavy eaters kindly hear and beware
Junk food beyond indulgence will not really have a sense of care
As you begin to feel an uncanny sense of weariness
Your lethargic approach is a function of your heaviness
You have consciously ignored the calories adding to your weight
There is still time that you can be proactive and alter your fate
One may like to be nostalgic and remember the days without girth
It may not feel long that you never had to answer the nosy quirks
One may feel a sense of agony at destiny being especially unkind
Especially the genetically blessed ones that you seem to uncannily find
Just imagine and visualize yourself as a more energetic and fitter person
You do not have to satisfy others nor provide others any valid reason
You know your body better than any so called expert
Just reciprocate the respect so as not to get a sense of hurt
It is better to be proactive and focus on what you can do
A fitness regime suiting your style that you are equipped to handle
A relook on your diet in terms of quantity,quality and timeliness of intake
Can be the turning point to reverse back the clock on your functional age
It may call for discipline and a change of your ingrained habits
It may need teaming up with folks trying to also shed their bit
It may need a high level of patience and persistence
It is not always that you willingly subject to scrutiny under the lens
As you give yourself time you may be in for a welcome surprise
The image in the mirror is not a mirage and you really look nice
The raised eyebrows that you now seem to more often attract
You seem to have recovered your self esteem as seen from your impact!
