Why is everyone so happy chasing a dream that is not their own? What joy do you get from the achievement of a goal that you never set for yourself? Even a lion thought he was a sheep until he saw his own reflection just coz he had spent his life among them...as one of them. Are you happy being a sheep just coz your surrounded by a herd ? Or would you rather dare to see a true reflection of who you are and learn to roar? Each one of us has a lion inside us waiting to roar but we don't want it to do that coz it takes the courage of facing your true self which most of us don't really have. Why do we take a beaten track and follow it with such sincerity ? Is it coz we really want to reach the destination it leads us to? I doubt. Its because we are scared to go into the darkness of a path never taken, for we doubt our own ability to deal with the obstacles it may offer us. We do what the world does and comfort ourselves each day saying "everyone is doing it..its not just me" at take pride in it. Shame on us if we are happy about doing something that everyone does. If you were here to do what everyone else does, what then is your own identity? We follow others in everything they do yet point fingers at them if something they do doesn't please us. Let us atleast be consistent in our behavior! We commit mistakes all the time and some of them too big to be called mistakes, yet we don't see them coz well its ok to make mistakes but when another person does it we are the first to point fingers.
Make mistakes, but let them be your own so that its you who learns from them and its you who shoulders the responsibility. Go run blindly, but run to chase a dream that you saw. Go take a path but not the one that everyone else took, but the one that offers you new challenges. Go taste the fruit of the satisfaction and joy you get from achieving a goal that was YOURS.

The Me That Was
What is this inside of me, I try to explore
but all i see is a deep void that fills my core.
Who is this, this isn’t me, the me that used to be..
Where is he lost, the me that was?
When my mind is empty I try to think of
God's wonder that is this World..
But all that comes to my mind is the filth in this world around..
The dark clouds covering my mind and shadowing like a monster..
all i can think of is of no worth..
What brings shivers to my spine is that this isn’t me , a devil that has taken hold of me
And i ask the question to you O Lord!
Where is he lost, the me that was...?
I loved to love and hated to hate..
but this me fears to love and doesn’t care to hate..
I dint care what the world thought of me..
but this heart fears everything around, afraid to leave its own shell..
so he may be safe from everything around..
But alas! its eating me up to wonder and yet find no answer..
Lord! O lord! send me an angel who would fight the devil and let me find again.. THE ME THAT WAS...

Why?
Why do these eyes shed these tears..
Why don’t they dry up and dry up forever?
Why does this heart ever beat for someone?
Why can’t it be content just beating for none?
Why does this mind wander into someone’s beautiful thoughts?
Why doesn’t it just wander into the unknown darkness?
Why does this heart long for the memories of that someone?
Why doesn’t it long for the hollowness of the dark…?
Why do these hands rise in prayer so that one maybe mine?
Why don’t they rise so that they may not need someone?
Why does this heart dare to dream over and over again?
Why doesn’t it wish for the state of not dreaming?
Why do I long for each breath to see the next moment?
Why don’t I long so I may not need to breathe again?
