What Matters? II
.jpeg)
How will you feel if
At the end of the day,
You realize that the people
You are trying to please
Are not really pleased with your works
And they just want you to position yourself aright?
Ask Martha,
So much hospitality in a woman.
Seeking to please her Lord by ensuring His comfort,
But He said to her, "Martha, Martha,
thou art careful and troubled
about many things".
Those you are trying to please,
Are they not seeing you as
Too careful and materialistic sometimes?
Are they really interested in you
Going all out for them
Or they just want you to stay in your place?
Or maybe you are the one overthinking things?
Maybe you are not just choosing the best,
Maybe you are not needed to act otherwise
Except being yourself in every natural way.
You will now see that it's
Not about been here and there
But by positioning yourself aright
And sometimes understanding the need of the hour
You will now see that it's not
About shoving care in people's faces
But respecting yourself
And holding yourself in an esteem so high.
What matters is that you accept yourself
Without seeking for other people's acceptance all the time
Thank you for your time.

Still me,
My tongue is like the pen of a ready writer.

Oh my God! You won't know the number of times I have hmmmmm reading this poem. It means, I got so much value from it. We must learn to accept and believe in ourselves before seeking people's attention.
The special purpose of life is to spend it well with friends and family, and when a person's age passes, it does not remain bound within a person, so it is better that a person should travel to many countries in his youth. It should be the special places that he thinks about, which he keeps thinking about since childhood, all these things can be achieved by one thing and that is hard work, earning money by working hard.
This is encouraging and it made me smile. Thank you so much, my friend. You are a breath of fresh air.
Awwww! You are welcome my dear friend 🤗
Just like that, what a man wants in life is to earn enough money that he can live his life peacefully, do everything for his family and if a needy person sees him, he can also help him. But getting all these things is not so easy and only all these things can be achieved by one thing and that is only hard work.
Hard work pays. Nothing comes easy, no doubt, my friend. We need to understand what matters in life...and stop chasing the wind.
Yeah you are right.
This is just the truth most people do not know about life...
Accepting one's self,hmmmmmmmmmm
Absolutely. Thank you for that and good to have you here.
You always have to value yourself above others opinions remain but life is yours and you have to live it the best way you can, people will have many expectations of us but we simply can't please others, thanks for sharing ♥
Wonderful poem, it is said that we can't make everyone happy, we should not seek other's attention in our life, we should have self believe, and we don't need anyone in our life. Don't expect from others. it hurts you when they don't live up to your expectations.
