Everyone’s journey in life is different from one another

Different from our friends, family, sisters, and brothers

We can grow up in the same household from birth to adulthood

But at the same time, our lives can be truly misunderstood

Due to the individual paths we take as a growing human being

Has given us the freedom to explore life with a deeper meaning 

I like to compare our journey to the changing of the seasons

Without acknowledging the importance of them eliminates the reason

The reason we commemorate those memorable holidays

The reason we celebrate those unforgettable birthdays

The reason we change our style according to the weather

Whether its a pair of shorts, a t-shirt, some pants, or a sweater

The little things in life is what makes our lives a whole

Whether we realize it in our youth or when we grow old

We expect our lives to be full of big opportunities

But in reality the smallest things is what grants us those possibilities

We change everyday, every hour, and every second

It may be frustrating to see the change without looking at our own reflections

But those changes are there and present in plain sight

For those who truly look within can find their light

We may not always be the best version of ourselves in times of trouble

Since we tend to forget how far we’ve come from being trapped in our own bubble 

Despite the imperfections and flaws we erratically discover 

That doesn’t stop us from growing and changing the faults we can uncover

No matter where we live, whether it’s a big city, state, or country

It’s all part of a plan for the purpose of our life’s journey
