Our lives may be parallel but
our personalities and attitudes
are quite different.
we have both been successful in
what we do, but have used
methods that suited our journeys.
you do what you do that best suits you,
I am what I am for what defines me.
we do not need to clash with
our differences in our experiences,
we can share the satisfaction of
our achievements.
if we can learn to live with our
mutual sense of happiness and well
being, there is much joy to be spread.
So when we meet, let us have a consensus
of opinion, based on mutual respect,
so we can have a meaningful dialogue,
where our bond is strengthened by
understanding,
and our lives enriched by stability,
further journeys made easier,
that fill our spaces with peace,
we can still walk away with our
differences and attitudes.
Life is a successful field
if we learn to curb our wild instincts,
and learn to respect each other’s charms
and the need to keep our differences.
Sometimes the light's all shining on me
Other times I can barely see
Lately it occurs to me
What a long strange trip it's been,
from Truckin by The Dead
Life is a Journey
Life is a long journey with
high hills and deep valleys.
Day after day one foot
in front of another.
Dark nights of deep depression,
offset by sunlit days of happiness.
Take one day at a time, and
accept what is my lot.
Failures, like impassable walls
block my way.
Success provides the path
around them.
People appear along the road
to accompany me.
Some for a short time and
others for the whole trip.
Sometimes people
act as my guide.
Other times they seek
to hinder me.
Many times, I walk alone
with only myself to rely on.
Sometimes I am surprised
and other times not.
In my golden years, I look back
at the road I have travelled.
Sometimes, I laugh, other
times I cry.
The Dead were right.
It has been a long strange trip!
Life is a journey on the road
No matter how thorny the road is
One day it will end
But for everyone it ends
In their own way
For some it leads to the final
And for others the end
Is just the beginning of a new path
Don't be afraid to go
Where you want to go
Not where you need to go
And don't forget to make stops
Where you like to stop
Or required to stop
For in life's journey
Stops are introspection of life
The plan is to go forward
And hit to the finish line
Where the crown of life's awaits.
Life is a journey to another place.
We know from whence we start
But not the destination.
It lies somewhere,
That terminus,
Within the scope of time and space,
Yet still may be,
For some of us,
Beyond the reach of our imagination.
Vroom vroom! The car stops to a halt.
Ooh! Dad’s home carrying him varieties of groceries.
Broom Broom! I sweep my room,
Collecting trash using a dustpan. Alas! The place is clean.
Vroom! The driver sped,
Crash! The boy was run over. Blood gutted out of his throat as he bled to death, helpless, while the heartless hooligan sped off to a neck breaking speed. All that remains is the indelible mark, now a blackspot as well as a death spot.
Vroom vroom! The mechanic tries the engine,
So old it is after it is drained its oil, after the previous race.
Tick tok as the team tries to reinstate it back to its performance so as to win the piston cup that he so craves it like the next breath.
Vroom vroom! The motorcycle halts.
The cyclist drops off a passenger at the crucial destination.
The latter, who is also a taxpayer, makes her way into the compound regarded a religious ground.
After six days of toiling the Sabbath is sure the best day for her to give thanks to god after a tough week.

Endless journey-
Eternal journey

There is no escape

Life is a Journey
Life is a journey
That’s so cliché
Today I am in a valley
Full of tears
Low, dark and far away
Life is a journey
That’s so cliché
Yesterday was a peak
Full of laughter
Happy, high and on a streak
Life is a journey
That’s so cliché
Tomorrow will be
I dont know what tomorrow will be
We shall see
Who knows what the future holds
I have to find out
I have to be bold
Life is a journey
One that I am on
And all I really have is me from dusk till dawn
Life is a journey
An honor to have and to hold
To succeed and to fail
To be born and grow old
Cherish the opportunities
Go forth – thinking well
Learn from the mistakes
Growth occurs – time will tell
Obstacles will manifest
People will say what they say
Keep your eye on process
Clear your mind – logic and reason guiding your way
Your time is now
The moment is here
Accept what you can’t change
Do what’s right – be as you appear
Life is what we make of it
Ultimately - life is what we do
So give life all you have
Dreams – make them all come true
Carpe diem - "Seize the day"
Life is a journey that is anything but turnkey
Full of many doors that we must open
As we find our way through another day
There are so many doors to choose from
Before all the opportunities
Will just flee or get by me
So we have to try to always reach for the sky
Turning all of life's opportunities on high
We have to let some pass us by
For every new door that opens
We need to test the waters
As they come ashore
We must not ignore what makes us soar
Before the next door closes
We need not worry or get in a hurry
About all the doors that are so blurry
For every new door that brings opportunity
Should allow us to foresee
Which are key for us to agree
Moving forward before the next door closes
We have to let go of those doors
That brings the doubt without clout
That turns our world all about
Making us want to shout
Why we figure out
Why we all stumble and fumble
Surely these are the doors that we must close
Because everybody knows it all makes us grow
Into the person, we have come to know
So take it nice and slow
And just find the right flow
Life is what you make it
So don't fake it
Or break it
But rather
Make it your own
Life is a journey-that is what our ancestors said,
The first step always filled with a big void,
The path filled with thorns,
With no pause button to rest.
The destination is future,
Unknown to many,
With different paths,
But still is the same journey.
The journey may be shorter,
Or it may be longer
The journey may be bitter,
To some, it might be honey,
Some may start on foot,
Others may go by plane,
Some won’t mind a train,
Other will take the bus,
Many will carry the luggage,
Others won’t mind leaving them behind,
To some may have nothing to carry,
But others will be proud to donate.
The journey may build the confidence,
To others, it might break their courage,
While some may become smarter,
Others will become worst.
Whether you like the journey,
Or you hate the journey,
It will always change who you are,
Because you can’t stop it.
As the journey finally ends,
The rewards will be reclaimed,
Will it be an everlasting peace?
Or will it be an inextinguishable pain?
This life is a beautiful journey for us to walk,
road is smooth and rough sometimes test for us to still keep walk
We need to have determination and balance to cross these roads,
Destination will be the success but you will enjoy the journey most
You will meet different passengers on way,
they will make your journey better and light
But don't get diverted in the emotional flight,
Keep yourself always happy and gay
There will be times when you will get stuck on the road,
Have some patience and make your way
never loose the hope and surrender your goal,
Its your test to cross this Road,
Because Life is a journey for us to walk,
Life is a journey,
For those who believe,
There is a place far greater
Than what we now see.
We all have different paths in life,
Different journeys along the way,
How we choose to live our lives,
Determines where we'll stay.
We are only travelers
In a world that's not our home,
For there is an occasion and a time
For every purpose under Heaven.
And when our journey finally ends,
We'll find a great reward,
Having peace and understanding
Together with the Lord.
Life is a journey
Beginning to the end
Life is a gamble
You must touch the win
So move with good thought
Read the dream in her deep eyes
Because she is a big tree
Provide you shadow in hard sunny day
She is beauty of blue lake
She is blinking as White Mountain
She is deepness of sea
She is wide like sky
You need her she is so broaden
You only do shape she do finish
Her beautiful dream is become desire of universe
I am so small what I am
In front of her bright light

Life is a journey
So they say-
Some are happy
Some are not
Some struggle
Some do not
My life's journey
Is frustrating
I see a road
I want to take
I start upon the path
So far so good- I say
Until I walk furtherier
Along the road
What I see -I do not like
A barrier pops up
Oh..my gosh!
So I get up-set
But I try again
Again and again
Where they came from
I do not know
My dreams for my life
Comes and goes
I wish it would change
So I can be-
Where I want to be
Instead of where i am
In limbo not knowing
Where I will be
There has been
Two many sorrows
In my life time
I say-Time for a change
For a better life for me
So I have decided-
To keep walking this road
For as long as it takes me
Until I see no more barriers
Then my life will change
for the better
