Some people's lives are so full of struggle...
They are brought low to the mud...
And they strive to rise... even when burdens weigh on their weakened shoulders...
And bravely they strive...
I wonder how many do finally rise and gaze at the skies...

Some other people do I find...,
Their life is so much blessed...
No strive is written on their brows...
Minor struggles.., small winds... that’s all they find
Across their path as they walk...
Their life is simple and so pretty...
That one cannot but gape and admire...

Still why is there this difference?
Why for some the storm...
And why for others small little breezes
In both the worlds’ around...

As I turn around in life and find
Both the parties' lives' contrast...
I could not but wonder... and ache away
As to why some struggle and fail...
And why towards joy do some simply sail away..?

One gift I need

One gift I desperately need is the ability to see good in people around me, to see their best qualities of which they themselves may not be aware...

Cynism makes life difficult... it depresses the mind and heart. On the other hand, the gift of seeing good in people around u - truly see and feel it, rather than pretending to appreciate where it is lacking..., it is a gift to be envied for. It makes life more beautiful.. it is one gift that makes u happy inside...

Well this is one gift I cant shop for.... but the best gifts in life come for free and sometimes with lots of effort.
