Life has become a mismatch of labels and comfort zones—cozy and secure

Everything in order, ducks in a row; boxed up neat and tidy

This comfort ends up leaving life’s purpose all obscure

And makes change feeling all the more unsightly

 

Never trying anything new

We go about our routine lives

Commit to something out of the blue?

We’re not interested in surprise

 

This stagnant pattern sucks creativity dry

We cling desperately to our known habits

We keep the known, the “safe,” in high supply

We don’t want to rock the boat, disrupt the social status

 

The unknown gets deemed too scary

We remain curled in our box

We could become legendary

If we just remove these blocks

 

Venture into the unknown—it’s full of possibility

Yes, there’s change, but change holds growth

You never know what could be with life’s versatility

It’s vast and abundant so don’t be loath

 

Remaining the same will not lead to happiness

People are ever changing

Remember life can be instantaneous

The unknown, never dull, is rather entertaining

 

Trust the process; dare to embark onward

Be all you dream to be to set you free

Maintain your spiritual growth, continuously moving forward

The unknown and change will help set you free—that’s guaranteed
