Time To Introspect

What are we doing?what is our goal in life?
To look most appealing in front of all? 
Be the topper in all? Have most money and fame?
To be praised by everybody?
We dress up well, attempt to look the best with makeup 
and visits to beauty parlours and doctors
We run throughout the day to earn tons and tons of money 
attempt to gain knowledge of many things
all in a bid to reach the apex, to impress others.

In the whole process we lose out on
our health and happiness

If we could be just ourselves
And enjoy life in a relaxed way 
Doing whatever gives us happiness and bliss
Pursuing our passions
Not copying others but following our mind
and leading life our way 
We will be healthier, happier lot!

It's time we did some introspection!
