Rediscovering Life's Rhythm

We're all consumed with outrunning one another's pace,

Neglecting to ponder the path we embrace.

We're all driven towards professional heights,

Neglecting to evaluate our joy and well-being rights.

We're all consumed with projecting on social streams,

Forgetting to reflect inward, where solitude gleams.

We're all eager to reach our destinations, it seems,

Yet forget to saviour the journey that teems.

We're all anxious about others' thoughts, deeds, opinions and trends,

Yet seldom consider what our own mind comprehends.

We fiercely battle to triumph over fellow men,

But rarely strive to conquer our inner demons.

We're racing full throttle, pursuing wealth's allure,

Yet neglect to relish life's blessings, which are pure.

We believed the time was scarce as we busied our days,

But misplaced priorities led us astray.

We yearned to win the rat race, at any cost,

Only to find ourselves where we began, lost.

But now, let us pause, for introspection's grace,

And recalibrate our course with a newfound embrace.

Let's seek a balance between ambition and serenity,

To find fulfilment in life's intricate tapestry.

Success is not merely material or fast-paced,

But a harmonious journey with moments interlaced.

So, let's reset our priorities, our souls to ignite,

And enjoy each step, with wisdom as our guiding light.
