Breathe!
Don’t just breathe.
Each breath is an irreplaceable gift
That is never guaranteed
Unlike its twin flame
Death.
Dream!
Don’t just daydream.
Go beyond what you want
And go achieve by fulfilling all its needs.
How much trust you have on your worth
If you keep stopping because of setbacks
They are lessons not just failures.
Live!
Don’t just survive.
Every lifetime varies in blessings and challenges
It doesn’t mean to wait it out
And wait for the next life.
Every morning
Wake up and give thanks
Because many
Their eyes are closed.
Find new hobbies
Learn new skills.
Before you rest forever in the grave
Will trillion dollars’ worth of plans and dreams.
