At the top of the clouds

In a world, that never ceases to spin,
In a time, that forces you to always win,
You being content with where you are now,
Will earn you the name, as flaky as snow.

It is always hard, to follow your dreams,
To make a living on your hopes and dreams.
It might mean, to have a simple living,
Away from the race, of abundant craving.

It is always hard, to follow your dreams,
There are many voices, to silence your dreams,
A life that reflects, your values and principles,
It is in itself, a massive and noble feat.

To move slowly with peace, and with grace,
In a world that demands you to run seems disgrace.
Let me remind you: that you are quite brave,
To avoid the temptations, and to follow your heart.

When ambition is seen, only as an ascend on a ladder,
The eyes that see so, might see your work as fodder.
It takes guts to take an undemanding job,
To fully invest your soul in your true dream job.

Ignore the nay sayers, for they are abundant in number,
They will come everyday, after you break every slumber.
If you don’t pursue hard, for what is your heart’s desire,
Can you expect anyone else, to do it for you my friend?

There might be suffering, in pursuing what is right,
And there is a lot of pain, to swim against the stream.
A job and salary are mere means to end,
They do help your life, but they don’t define you my friend.

You’ll be told in million ways, that you are wrong,
Be strong and bold, to not sell yourself out.
Get help when needed, and move onward and upward,
At the top of the clouds, lies the eternal sunshine!
