In this busy hustle of life
Take some time out to reflect and ponder
To evaluate the purpose of living
So you can carefully listen to the voice of reason
And can create a perspective with fresh energy
Learn to keep taking a step forward
And always figure out a way to crawl up
When your inner turmoil crushes you
And you feel emotionally destroyed
And lose all zest for colorful living
Just remember to rise up the challenge
Of enduring pain and affliction
And cure your soul by leading it
To discover new meaning with fresh energy
And uninterrupted zeal for continuing
When you are tired of unrelenting struggle
And find no source of strength and hope
Where mingle sentiments play with feelings
Then take a break from the busy hustle of life
And sit quietly to ponder on your meaningful life...
