Poetry

The Child In Us…

If I could bring back the time
When life is so SIMPLE
Eat, play and sleep….

When HAPPINESS is not
Measured by MATERIAL WEALTH

When our SATISFACTION is not
Based on the price tags

When our CONTENTMENT is not
DEPENDENT on the QUANTITY that we have

When being SUCCESSFUL is not
measured on the NUMBER of
ACHIEVEMENTS, RECOGNITION and AWARDS.

MAYBE….
IT IS A REALIZATION…..
THAT…

No matter how old we’ve become ….
LET US RETAIN THAT CHILDNESS IN US…
TO KEEP OURSELVES GROUNDED with
THE SIMPLICITIES OF LIFE…
