Lessons of life



Your story is not your story alone,
It entwines with people who cared
People who stood beside you all along,
Holding that hand to reach the path you belong
People who threw toughest of challenges,
Making you stronger through the ages

Your story is not your story alone,
It entwines with people who disapproved
People who ridiculed your choices,
Teaching you myths are to be broken
People who wished you fail,
Holding hope till the tail

Your story is not your story alone,
It entwines with people who ignored
People who called you strange names,
Making sure you turned stones into shapes
People who left you mid way
Realizing you didn’t need them anyway

Your story is not your story alone,
It entwines with people who loved
People who tolerated your tantrum,
Teaching that love is the only fulcrum
People who thought about you before them,
Making you feel blessed to have them

My journey is not my journey alone,
It entwines with people who came along.
