On the roads, once again!



On the roads, once again!
Not for fighting with opinions,
or with humiliation or elation on the outcomes,
but to assimilate everything
and everyone, and growing beyond,
this time!

On the roads, once again!
Not for trying to find a foothold
amidst the sea of bewildered humanity,
but to know the insignificance of this life,
thus losing the hold to the infinite,
this time!

On the roads, once again!
Not for attempting to erase
the insecurities of an unpredictable life,
but to relish the freedom 
from both security and insecurity,
this time!

On the roads, once again!
Not for filling the life with meaning,
through occurrences - lives and events,
but to be empty of these compulsions,
thus independence from the need to fill,
this time!

On the roads, once again!
Not for struggling for a way out
from life - mundane and hopeless,
but to offer a possibility
of homecoming to everyone around,
this time!

These roads shall not be a struggle,
not an entanglement, any more!
Let the hurdles on the path wear all layers artificial,
the scorching heat burn all likes and dislikes, 
the thunderous rain dissolve the need to react, and
the traveller himself become patience and compassion, limitless!
