Once Upon A Discovery

Some people were made teachers
Others were made students
So that the one who thirsts for knowledge
Will be led by the education
That seeks to activate dormant genes
And expose the true self of an individual

Some people were made preachers
Others were made a congregation
So that the one who thirsts for guidance and support
Will be led by the ministry
That seeks to bring home the lost and found

Some people were made drivers
Others were made passengers
So that the one who thirsts for the start of a long journey
Will be led by the ride
That seeks to cruise and arrive safely to a final destination

So give me a microphone
And let me proclaim to humanity
That the world operates this way
But if you can’t let go of your skepticism,
Remember that we only reap what we sow

The mango tree was made to bear mango fruits
The Bee was made to produce honey
The eagle was made to fly
The fish was made to swim
But the parrot eats palm nuts
And the monkey eats bananas
That is why some people prefer Coca-Cola
And others crave Fanta

And so I was made a poet
And you, part of an audience
So that the one who thirsts for inspiration
Will be touched by the lyrics
That seek to move the inner being

So follow your path
And let me mount mine
Because our differences were made for complements
And our similarities, our distinctions.

Therefore you only have to find yourself!
Because
The God who made us in His image
Has given to us our free will
And He has endowed us with many hidden treasures

But He has made us His subjects
So that the one who thirsts for a true self discovery
Will be led by the Father
Who seeks to find, guard and guide the path of the sheep
That is in the wilderness
Wandering!
