What makes our life worthwhile?
Not the path of learned and wise,
or fortunate ones, living it king-size,
but the masses with dreams in the eyes.
Would they be content, by achievements,
fulfilling their criteria of the success,
or acquiring the material possessions,
with wealth and fame in their accession?
With the freedom to live the life,
explore and experience without strife,
as all the feelings are gratified,
and wishes answered without delays.
But, the world is not that forgiving,
and we have struggles in our dealings,
there are setbacks and disappointments,
so, what's our motivation to keep going?
Is it love, which brings the motivation,
or an inherent tendency, for some appreciation,
as we seek to be valued and acknowledged,
when our actions are admired and respected.
But we can be selfish, in our interests,
still crave connections, to be accepted,
someone who discovers, cherish our presence,
listen to our tales, without any judgment.
May be then, we could find happiness,
when someone embraces our existence,
for, that compassion impresses our heart,
living becomes worthwhile, in their kindness.
