Living dreams

I can’t stray, mother.

I Love you, and I was born to strengthen you

I was born to find the happiness deep within

I was born to brighten your wings

Just like you brightened mine.

I can’t stray, teacher.

I was born to memorize your facts

And think beyond the horizon

To bring meaning to lives

And let pride bubble in your chest.

I can’t stray, my love.

We were born to enrich our lives,

Care for each other and embrace in love.

I wasn’t born to stride between human libraries and

Cuddle parties, in deep pain.

I can’t stray, my boss.

I was born to find God in everyone,

I was born to work in tandem,

To find each day a new beginning,

And be a part of human upliftment.

I can’t stray, my master.

I was born to imbibe your ideas,

Realize those were not to prevent me,

From following my path to find the truth

And merge into the Oneness.

I was born to understand the different roles

In this human life and do my Karma,

According to my Dharma,

For that is what sustains this world,

That is a beautiful jigsaw puzzle.

I was born to meet life head on,

To have the courage to change things when I can,

To remain serene when my role is nil,

That is possible from the wisdom

Imparted to me by my mother and master.

Before I was born, as a soul I had sketched out,

My path for this life time.

Let me not deviate, but finish this journey,

That I had meticulously drawn,

And leave the rest for other incarnations.

One life is too short to feel everything,

To taste everything, but I need to,

Learn to embrace change gracefully,

Uncover the truth and learn to fly,

Come what may be around me.

When I am old

I will be proud of my journey

Which could uplift all loved ones,

That made difference in many lives,

And filled peace in my heart.

I was born to be free,

And to realize that the freedom is within.
