Many will get enchanted by the grandest things

All the glamours and everything that’s glittering

Oftentimes, it is easy to fall in love on tremendous dreams

Magnanimous visions and great yearnings

The world is quick to ideate longings

We get lost in our own reveries

Liberate and enamored by our kind of living

Have you thought of your starting point?

Have you wondered about the beauty of beginning?

Before a leaf appears, the tree is certainly watered

Before a tree bears fruits, its roots are deeply rooted

For it is easy to dream dreams but real dreams never go painless

Authentic longings are conceived rather than just perceived

We’re prone to be fascinated by adornments yet hollow edifices in the end

How romantic it is, to be captivated by the skies

Undaunted, we’re soaring as eagles up high

As though the only permission is our yes

Definitely, it’s alright to fly for the unreachable

But be our “no” a complete sentence

If our borders are wanting our hearts and if our grounds are holding us fast

Abide on the soil of your beginnings, may it be sands or muds

Our beginnings are ingrained inside

Remain on the tapestry of your design

Our souls be knitted on the details

That before a tree stands, a single seed has to die within

Our beginnings have myriads to tell about our end

We need to start small, yet dig deep until we reach the deepest chasm

It isn’t about fulfilled dreams but the genesis and the life in-betweens
