It is what it is

Was grown up reading fairy tales that gave wings to imagination
always happy endings and everything was just attainable
So carried away with each story, day dreaming became habitual
Larger than life dreams as in my world, I am not the princess, I was the fairy! Unbelievable!
for whom anything is just on the wave of magic wand away and possible

But the real teachers made larger than life entry
“Time” and” life” the brutally honest and the toughest teachers
Ensure to repeat the lesson till its not properly learnt
And it ain’t getting any better… we either became a better student or a rebel so better learn faster

But what about the wings that form due to imagination
Well with determination, dreams can become a passion with doubt repentance
The truth struck hard though, where there is no magic wand nor fairy tale neither I am a fairy angel
From others eyes as well what I have is less, but not complaining though life is bearable

Divine drops everywhere in different shapes and forms as closely observe
Its in child innocence and smile, its in parent’s blessing
Its in nature and in kindness as well in love
Its in gratitude in perseverance and its in hope
Accept life whole heartedly as though it is not ideal but still worth and beautiful

  1. As a child there are endless possibilities but as one grows the child within one slowly diminishes due to the grinding of one’s ego which was not there as a child. Very nice writing, experiences in life are the real teaching with exams at each turn and then lessons followed. 👍🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻
