Inside the maze

Reality check; life seems to present me with camouflaged routes.
But I believe my end shall be glorious.
I will genuflect in praise of my Father for his goodness

It is no surprise that every human being is defensive even in trivial matters
We can't seem to be enough for ourselves
We toil day in and day out, we sacrifice a lot just to make ends meet.
In all aspects of our lives, we desire perfection and much more.
But how much is enough?

At a point in my life, I wanted to become everything I had imagined possible
Being a blessed family man, prolific public speaker and a global development advocate was on top of my list
The future is uncertain, but I am not giving up on my dreams.
I believe I am gradually becoming a visionary.

I expected nature to understand my quest to be the successful Victor in life.
I thought if I knew everything about something I will become some kind of superhero.
I contemplated living my very own fairy tale.
Sometimes I get worried, I get scared
But it is okay to be human

But the time seems to be moving faster than usual
And I feel I have not achieved anything yet
Little did I know that the universe had embarked on its own mission
To rescue me from my super wild imaginations in my wonderland

Many people came my way; we crossed paths, we walked side by side, and some exchanged ideas
Others like litmus papers became the tests and results in my life
The journey is keenly becoming interesting
But after all, I am a part of the human race
Our makeup is a lot of things
Not that we're selfish,
But we are unhappy about receiving less than we had previously.
That's what fuels our demand for extra; it means a lot to us.

But come to think of it, do we even care about the other party?
What about the third party involved or who could be affected in any way?
The effect is not in the planting of the seeds but in the harvesting of its fruits.

We can be better off than expected if only we believe
We are not defenceless, We defence less
We make people's visions futile because we negate their efforts.
Let's be interactive and be fond of what they hope to become
We could lower our egos and aspire to be selfless,
So we all emerge Victors.
