A Dialogue With Me

Hello my friend.
It's been a while since we sat down like we used to. I understand life is demanding as we grow older and we rarely get past the loud noises and the need to feel relevant that we forget about what matters the most. Have you truly grown? It's been a long time since you told me all your plans of becoming Independent, I hope you've grown? I hope you have made yourself some fortune that could give you the kind of life you dreamt of?. Time flies and changes happen. I hope I'll hear a lot of changes that have occurred over the years when we next meet.

Why does happiness seem far even when it lives next door? Have I set for myself a boundary too far for my reach? This, and a lot of questions bothers me. They say patience pays, They preach of endurance and time. I have sat daily beside the town's wall clock, listening to every one of its clicks, waiting for my time to tick. For days I sat, my bones weary, my clothes stench from my own sweat. But in conceal was a stealer, waiting to take all I've labored. While I work and wait, my bag of grains empties like sand in a timer.

In the midst of chaos find peace, even the rich cry. While you roam, remember the you you've left behind. Do not lose yourself trying to find happiness. Sometimes we want to talk , a discussion of truth beyond societal pretence and the show of perfection. Life and the things in it did not promise happiness and peace. Life has made you the master craft of your world and peace. While the world is loud , sit and talk to you. You might just be shocked to know , the peace you sought for many years was lying right beside you.
