Pacing up the steep staircase of life

joining the maddening race to find that coveted job

a dishy husband or a trophy wife

We move from one to another with a relentless quest

We treat each milestone like  another conquest

Somewhere along the way we choose to forget

 It isn’t about earning pots of money or winning a bet

Life isn’t about  victories and material gain

It is about relishing each moment

Soaking in both joy and pain

It is about learning lessons for which we were born

It is about realizing every dusk gives way to a new dawn….
