Essence

What is life without action?
Like a movie without controversies
A marathon race without long tracks

What would life be without struggles?
Life’s tribulations and pursuits
They Seem to be more than mere actions
perhaps even justifying a desire to go on

Imagine a life without action
A movie without controversies
Such a thing not even worth carrying on with
Too uneventful without its tribulations
Too dull without aspirations
With no real reason to anticipate tomorrow

Despite all these tribulations
Despite all these unattained aspirations
some never appreciate their reason for living
These challenges actually make us want more life

Carrying on everyday looking forward
Forward to resolving some controversies
Pursuing some aspirations to fulfilment
These give us identity and drive

The clock ticks that’s why it’s called a clock
Humans conquer and dominate problems
Without which we would lose our mortality

These become our mechanism for forward movement
The engine of our continued living
Pushes the rich to get richer
Poor to get rich
intensifies the lust for more power

The forward movement like the clock
These ones define our humanity
No matter what you do
Endeavour not be stuck
Keep moving running aspiring and catching
