Reaching out to Destiny

                            Reaching out to Destiny     - 18th May'2004

I wish I could reach out to Destiny.

And hold it firmly in my palms.

Knowing what is to be and come.

Perhaps Life would give me yet another chance.

If I know now, what I would know in the morrows to come.

Would I yet go on living the way I do today.

Or would I push myself harder.

Riding over those currents and waves.

Would I choose to be different, I wonder.

Or would I strive more or simply jest a little louder.

Or would I flow with the tide.

Taking on everything in my stride.

I wish if I could realise all my dreams.

Maybe I am destined for.

More than what comes my way.

If only I could reach out to my destiny today.

Would I choose to change the world around?

Or make a statement more profound.

Or would I let things be.

And yet move ahead, reaching out to Destiny.
