If it is up to me
The sun will never cease to shine
The moon will never cease to glow
The world will exist without challenges
Life would be a smooth sail
And everyone will be happy
******
If it is up to me
I will turn back the hands of time
And be born into affluence
So I do not have to jump so many hurdles
Nor let the eyes spill its fluid
In the quest for my livelihood.
******
If it is up to me
I will travel the road to success
To greatness and wealth
Without one or two tyres punctured
If it is up to me
But it is not up to me

A good one, and because it’s not up to us we have to do everything possible within standards and requirements to achieve what we desire in life.

I concur. If it’s up to us, we will have lazy days and just push hardwork aside. We will live the best lives devoid of any human catastrophe. But alas! It is not up to us to decide sometimes. Have a beautiful day! 🙂

I look forward to seeing how you negotiate the waters of writing and bill-paying. I think that’s what you were suggesting when you said you wish you were born to affluence. I understand the sentiment. But we weren’t, so you’re right, we push on and await the rain.

Hi Amy, You are quite right with your insights. Pushing on and never giving up is the hallmark of winners. My humble background prepared me to keep moving forward inspite of challenges and to never give up on my dreams. I am evolving in my writing and enjoy it as a passion for now. If it brings monetary benefits in the future, I’d gladly accept it. PS: I apologize for my delayed response. I’ve had a busy weekend and couldn’t respond to comments promptly. Thank you very kindly for visiting my blog and reading my post. I appreciate. Cheers. 🙂
