I know its hard.
Look at the mountains
That call you home,
The peaks you are yet to hike to,
The valleys you are yet to whizz past.
Learn-
Adventure.
Know,
That there is an entire world that exists
For you to conquer.
Look at the dreams
Your three-year-old self dreamed.
Remember the things you wanted to change,
The people you wanted to reach out to.
Learn-
Resilience.
Know,
That you have promises to keep.
Look at the road in front of you.
Look at the sunflowers that turn
Towards the sun
No matter where they are planted.
Learn-
Determination.
Know,
That you are stronger than you think.
Look at the sky,
A lapis blue,
Feel the number of people
That have stood beneath its roof,
The number of people
Who share the same firmament;
Learn-
Solidarity.
Know,
That you are not alone.
Open your eyes.
Really open your eyes.
Look at the world
That exists without existing,
The sea that never stops kissing the shore,
The flowers that grow without being planted,
The sun that rises and sets every single day.
Breathe.
And start again.

Great poem. The day we realized that we are a piece of earth and our existence is at the mercy of environment, we will be respect and bow down to the creator.
