Everyone has a story

View as pictorial →

Do not tell me you are rich when you have never longed for a penny,

     To some hustle is more than just a fancy word.

Do not talk about disappointment when your family still holds you dear.

People somewhere have had a perfect share of true rejection.

Do not tell me you are faithful when you have never fallen.

You have not faced odds against odds
You cannot make my kind of choices.

Do not tell me you've had it all when you have;

never been denied.
never hit rock bottom.
You are still yet to learn.

Do not tell me you the best when you have never trailed.

The only challenge you've had is yourself.

Do talk to me about freedom. Its sometimes better to be in chains than to be free.

Then you know your limitions.

To live is to suffer, to survive is to find meaning to one's suffering
