Straight line, simple life.
Cozy fabric.
I lie on it like a blank sheet of paper.
I arrange ideas, one on top of another.
Like a shopkeeper, I check their weight.
I’m searching for a method for life.
A simple pattern like that line on the carpet.
I reach out, grab it.
Better than a crystal ball.
I hold it in my hands, turn it around.
Twist its sides.
It has 6 colors.
This is Rubik.
Maybe it can help me.
I’ll assign one topic from the wheel of life to each of its sides:
Fun — yellow.
Career — red.
Family — white.
Friends — blue.
Health — green.
Spirituality — orange.
At the beginning, everything’s mixed up.

But when I solve all the sides — there will be order in me.
Brilliant!
I solved one side and the next.
Ha, but it’s easy!
Suddenly my hands stopped.
Thoughts are arguing.
I’ll turn fun, twist career.
Next step is family — that’s a bit difficult.
Time passes, and I’m back to the beginning.
Good idea -
but without instructions, it will be torture!
I hear a call: when will we eat breakfast?
I answer: I started something, I have to finish it.
When will you finish?
Without instructions, it will probably take me my whole life.
Straight line, simple life.
