Be an unchained raindrop
Mikhail Puyam *
Chained by the feelings of success, failure, happiness, dejections;
Often confused with the past and expecting a present to roll out a sparkling future; here you are,
Living a life with a hope of a good fortune.
But like every raindrop, even human beings hit different grounds in life;
Some fall to the good fortunes that they have always longed to be bestowed;
And some end up like those drops, hitting the leaves of tall mangroves somewhere.
So it's all about the fate, destiny and most importantly the right timings;
Know your purpose in life and get inspired just by the thought of it;
Choose an appropriate path and redefine your destination if necessary;
But once moved out, never stop your approach even if the road becomes harder and ambiguous.
Remember, even those raindrops faced many lightning
and escaped many storms in the midway, before finally hitting
another happily dispersed raindrop.
