Why God Made me this way
Dhruv Gupta 1998 (Tikamgarh)
One day while sitting on the swing,
Mind went into a different space,
Suddenly you realize the wide view in front of you,
You look at the god's creation, everything looks calm and fulfilled,
Then you look at yourself and it pains to find you it is only you who is struggling inside,
You look for inspiration here and there,
You can see the flower blossoming and showing its full fledged form to the world,
You can see the grass straw grown to its full length, could cut like a knife,
You can see the the climbing arbor, climbing high and high, that it could even react higher than what supported it,
You can see the river flowing and birds flying high as sky and seeing everyone below,
Now here I am sitting like always, pondering as to why god made me this way,
I am like a bird who can't strech it's wings long enough, they seem to cuffled and tight,
Even after years of flying training it could only jump and not fly,
I am like a cheetah but who runs slower than everyone in its group and everyone are ahead than him,
They are first to get the meal and nothing left for me,
I am like a giraffe whose long neck wasn't long enough to bite the most delicious berries on the top,
The point is I am the most mediocre guy you could meet,
But there is something in everyone, because god made me and his creations are unique,
I am like a bird who will fly to the end with it's tightened feathers to the end, till the last flap of its wing,
I am like a cheetah who even though is the slowest will share the food with others in the group how the small the catch maybe,
I am like a giraffe whose neck even though maybe smallest but it hugs every animal due to its shortness,
You can fly high and achieve things in the life,
People will always mock you for who you are because you might look the slowest and dumbest in the group,
But you are always the one with the biggest plans and even though you dont have the tools to achive something now will never stop you from going for that thing because you always strive, you fail, fall, get mocked at ,but inside you remain true to yourself and push hard.
I am happy that god made me this way. !!!!!!
