The lesson I learned from the road.

 Another day had gone by.
 I had tough luck. 
The world is on the move, but I am still stuck.
 It was my fifteenth job interview.
I missed it out again. 
I was among those unlucky few, much to my disdain.

I entered a cafe to quench my thirst and hunger. 
I saw some street urchins begging for food.
I tried to control my anger. 
People driving in luxurious cars treated them like dirt.
I almost felt like shedding tears as that situation did hurt.

I forgot my pathetic situation for a while. 
The children taught me never to give up my smile. 
I resumed my journey towards my home.
 I had a thought troublesome.

What if I didn't get a job? 
Would I beg, borrow, or rob? 
I mumbled to myself after glancing at the road.
 Every day it endured so much load. 
It never protested, nor did it whine. 
It seemed to reassure me that it was fine.

It encouraged me to keep on trying instead of losing my heart.
Who knows, tomorrow might be your day! 
Give your life a fresh start.

Thank you so much for taking your precious time to visit my website. Hope you enjoyed reading my blogs. 😊😊

  4. Oh my dear, dear Aparna, we are suppose to lift each other up, especially during a crisis. You are much stronger than you think sister girlfriend, despite how certain people try to attack your spirit and bring you down. 🤨

    Much love to you and your daughter. When someone tries to ridicule you or knock you down, you muster the will to rise and stand tall. Sending you lots of love, hugs and smooches!!! 🤩💋😍💐🤗
