Delirium
Confusion is all that I have encountered since I grew up a bit here
First the confusion of friends, required for timepass but sometimes they would hurt with words and actions
Then the confusion of career, what to choose and become
Then another confusion of marriage, to marry or not was a million dollar question
Then came the question of kids, to have one or not was another dilemma
After kids confusion of working, to stay at home and take care of them or to pursue my career
Then there are many other dilemmas that go along with me as I transverse the path of life
What is my real purpose in life? My family or salvation?
Dilemma of who does action, me or the lord?
Am I the body or the soul?
Is there life after death or this is the last birth?
Why I should maintain cleanliness when I am made of the dust and will mingle with one,
Why take life seriously when is after all temporary!
Everyday small dilemmas,
What to cook, what to wear, what to say, what to hide...
Everything in life is a confusion and this confusion has no correct answer,
There are two sides of every coin, nothing right nothing wrong here
They say delirium is a sickness in that case I am suffering from it since birth.
