Relevance

Be it the child or the adults,

everyone have their dreams,

things to be achieved, or receive, 

from the world's treasuries,

and feel happy and content,

interacting with the world. 


It starts with individual self,

when we have the awareness,

of our values and the identities,

the aspirations and capacities,

that might influence our relationships, 

with friends, families and society. 


For, friendship are conditional,

to the situations and the class,

that changes with passage of time,

everyone having their responsibilities, 

drifting away or become occupied, 

to give any space to our concerns. 


Society too, is self centered, 

desiring conformity in our actions,

where freedom is being questioned,

while praises given to obligations,

preparing us to follow the path,

helping us become an ideal person. 


Also, in our professional sphere,

we were expected to be loyal,

providing services without questions,

for the growth of establishment, 

and failures were not tolerated,

while competitions are intentionally created. 


Even our quest for something divine,

comes at a price of total surrendering, 

for seeking the higher truth of life,

requires our dedication and sincerity, 

or we might encounter some failures,

in our spiritual or religious endeavors. 


And every time, when we felt lost,

we would whisper, " Am I enough",

what more needed to be done,

to be rewarded with an appreciation, 

something everlasting, giving us solace,

with the realization...We are indeed relevant.
