We deserve a much more Fulfilling Life!



We deserve a much more Fulfilling Life!
Days that challenge us to the hilt
But nights that soothe down the fatigue, with gentle caress
And a quilt pulled over the head,
Even in summers, to cut-off from the world
Finding solace in sweat or shivers

We deserve a much more Fulfilling Life!
With Fuel tank filled to the brim
And music, stories streaming in the Car
Anti-thesis to the world outside the window
Or maybe drawing out a parallel sublime world
Creating a new reality, a more acceptable one

We deserve a much more Fulfilling Life!
A travel itinerary that looks more like a rough map drawn by a 7 year old kid
Lines crisscrossing, points overlapping, colors palm-printed
And still making sense to the whole purpose of travelling
Because travel should take one deeper rather than further
Because itineraries choke the conduits to explore beyond imagination

We deserve much more Fulfilling Life!
Full of Mud, Mess, Mingling but never Monotony
Amoebic but with a sense of purpose
And long-hauled walks but with enough rest in-between
Breathing in the air that emanates culture and literature
And exhaling exhilaration that only a seeker can feel


We deserve a much more Fulfilling Life!
