Life is a journey



Life isn't always wonderful, is the reality.
Whether we want to believe it or not,
Whether we want to accept it or not,
Whether we want to register it or not,
And whether we want to address it or not,
Is totally our concern and our duality.

It goes on and on, because that is it's prime function.
We tend to act as passengers on a train,
With each person having his or her own personalized train.
And we make it what we want as a projection.

The seats are where we work, sleep and eat.
The windows are through which we peek out to see others in the midst of all our feat.
The bathroom is to discard what is considered waste during our journey.
And the gate is to step down to see the world and the vicinity.

The train leaves a station with us knowing nothing where to go,
The trip begins from a point where we are just exposed to the journey's flow.
Initially we have some people to drive the train and guard the entrance,
'Cause we know nothing about driving and are helpless enough to get sustenance.

We know nothing about the path on which the train is,
We tend to sense and learn our train's control and surveillance.
Maybe the path itself is not determined,
And waiting for us to make one while we grow and learn which direction is marked and boldly lined.

Once we are capable enough to take the power in our hands,
The people get down at a stop for us to be self independent and to see things we can.
Not leaving us behind but to go back to their own trains,
Only to meet in the journey numerous times whenever we will change the direction towards them.

This is how we get to be the owner of our trains.
Now we have to travel for as long as we are there in existence.

Accidents happens and the path too can get deflected,
But our motive becomes clear,
When we decide that we have to get it back on track and directed.

We will lose control at times,
And the speed too may vary greatly.
We will get irritated and step down,
Wishing never to drive that thing again surely.

But realising that the train is on the track, static and not moving
Will make us start the engine and at least keep the vehicle running.
Other things will work,
Either totally by us or with other's assistance,
Life isn't always wonderful is what what we should understand and maintain our competence.
