CHEERS to LIFE ;)

Just when we all think
ahhh i have figured out life,
it throws us off the cliff.
Just when we think
we're feeling down and lazy,
it wakes us up with a kick.








Just when it seems 
we're all sorted out,
it pops up a newly designed issue to sort.
Just when it seems 
life will be smooth from here on
it gives us a nasty jolt.

Just when it feels
we're all settled now,
it takes our job away.
Just when it feels
we're above everyone,
someones's there to deliver a slap on the face.

Just when we need
to reach somewhere on time,
its sets up a traffic jam.
Just when we need
to feel we know exactly what to do,
it turns upside down,the entire plan

A roller coaster ride
that we like to enjoy,
at times we fall off
and scratch our sides,
sometimes we scream on
with excitement and dont give a care,
at times we wait in horror
for it to turn off the scare.

And just when we realise
we've found all the answers,
it throws us a brand new question.
Maybe thats exactly the mistake
it isnt to be figured out at all,
rather allowed to be completely random.

Because just when we crib
the day just could'nt get any worse,
a stranger smiles so warmly
and restores back its worth.
Just when we complain
about losing a cherished belonging,
it surprises us many days later
long after we have stopped looking.

Looks like when we take it for granted
life says what the heck!
when we imagine things to be forever
its gives us a reality check.
Its our buddy,we should simply raise our glass to,
and savour its mysteriously brewed wine,
say CHEERS to LIFE aloud !
go to bed and sleep off just fine ;)

  1. Yup, life is unpredictable and thats I guess the fun of it. One has to build peace with being able to live in the unknown, cos most of our time goes in that. Living in the known is good at the begining but gets boring later - and thats when we seek out challenges, n sometimes life just hands them to us on a platter. I guess, life is good, the way it is - instead of controling it one should make the most of whatever we have at all times !!
