Eldorado-Life is a journey

ELDORADO-LIFE IS A JOURNEY
Vijay K Koduri MD

In twilight, as the day takes its bow,
Longer and shorter, dances the shadow.
Living out barely on daily wages!
Loving those daring high stake wagers!
A mere cry in the cradle for one! 
A loud shout out for those landing on the moon!
Life is a journey, compete not just compare!

Not how many sights you see!
Love voraciously the byte you view.
Not how many miles you go!
Leave a mark in the mile you be.
Not how much you got!
Be gracious with what you sought.
Life is a journey, live, not just move!

Not how many games you play!
Show your best and do it the right way.
Not how much you read!
Practice well, with what you did.
Not how many friends you gather!
Make them feel, it's you they have rather.
Life is a journey, love, not just have!

Missed a much-awaited promotion!
Focus to behave, not just crave.
You never want to hear!
“Your seat isn't here, and you need to move over.”
Take a seat in a row, that’s lower.
Requests will pour in, for you to come over. 
Life is a journey, be humble, not just entitled!

Sore after a rocky relation?
Just leave it and get over it.
Want to own a Silverado,
Yours, it could belong.
In pursuit of Eldorado! 
The drive could be way too long!
Life is a journey. live your dream, not just live in them.

Vijay Koduri Date: 1/15/2024 10:32:00 AM “Eldorado” written by Edgar Allan Poe. He describes a gallant knight riding miles and miles, up and down the mountains valleys in search of "Eldorado". The shadow suggests that he should move on if he seeks "Eldorado" which is a lost city of gold, an imaginary place though. Basically, if we have unattainable goals, we just keep riding on and on. We might die in pain and depression so have to keep our courage if we seek such goals.
