Life :(Puddles, Oceans, Bridges)

Life :

(Puddles, Oceans, Bridges)

by Zeba Amodu 

Everyday we have to jump puddles,

Swim across an ocean, move hurdles  

Sometimes we will have to trudge uphill 

Or even swallow bitter pills.

Journey of life is never easy and smooth, 

We have to dwell in the thorns to reach for the fruit,

The path is lined with obstacles and bars,

We have to reach for the moon, to fall among the ⭐ 

But if we are steady in the process 

We will cross the bridge to success 

Glory will come to those who persevere,

Not to those who sit, wait and fear.

Life is not supposed to be normal.

Life is not supposed to be normal. 

If life is normal, something is missing, 

Sorrow adds purpose to life, 

Purpose adds challenges,

Challenges brings struggles,

Struggles leads to goals, 

Goals add meaning 

Meaning gives directions 

Directions leads to destination 

Destination brings strength 

Strength builds confidence 

Confidence inspires courage 

Courage is a way to success. 

Success carves roads, 

And the journey begins!

An ongoing journey,  a journey to somewhere 

A path to everywhere and anywhere. 

Search for what is missing in life......

If life is normal !

It's not supposed to be normal.
