Right timing

They say there is a perfect timing for things to happen but then when is that and how do we even know? While time waits for none I have been told not to rush things and will have everything figured out and happen at the right time. 

I am just lost if my waiting for the right timing is a mere wastage of time. Uncertainty of life needs no validation so why can’t we just squeeze things in today. People say there is a future that needs to be built but what about the present that we are losing just for the sake of an unseen future. In such times I wish I have the supernatural power to just visit the future and see if things are really worth fighting for.

In such a future oriented environment it is so difficult to get a minute of peace in the present. There are so many things I don’t want to worry about. I don’t want to worry about the future, not having enough to meet my expenses, how to pay back my credits, next meal or the papers on my desk, but I don’t have the luxury to do that because I am worried that I will be left behind if I do that. Is everything in this world a competition and race or is it only in my thoughts? 

Philosophers would say one should not compare with others and will have one's own time to do things but I always find people impatiently comparing themselves to others. Can’t we trust the wise words and wait for our own time. We have always been encouraged to set goals and dreams and if we do that don't they come with a timeline? So, a confused soul like me can never figure out the right timing for anything and just lose my peace with such thoughts. 

If you all are also going through similar experiences let's grab a coffee together, have a conversation and enjoy a minute of peace together. 
It was the right time to turn my back and take a picture.

Sunshine

Chasing sunshine
If I have any say in this world, 

I want to repeat our days

Over and over,

Never getting tired of it.


Too blessed am I,

To have met you.

Brought back the hopes,

Which were long lost.


Never realized my worth,

Until you showed me.

Never thought I would be loved,

Until I heard it from your lips.


Timing has never favored me,

Like it did with you and me.

Brightened is my world,

For I finally found my sunshine.
