Nothing is free in this world

And the journey to adulthood isn't automatic

Whether you like it or not

You have to be responsible for many things 

Even for things outside your circle of influence

You just have to wake up daily

To make series of life affecting decisions

Even when you're not so certain of the outcomes

But somehow, by virtue of existence, Life puts you in that position

Not considering if you're mentally and emotionally ready for it

A situation where for a minute you have all the answers

And in a split second, you're staring blank, all confused 

Wondering what just went wrong with your flow of thoughts

When you finally come to that place of self-awareness

You then realize, that there are no right answers in this life of ours

And because of that, we are saddled with series of unpleasant tasks

Task of turning our various decisions into the right answers

Because of this very reason, we had to grow a kind of mind within us

One that is deeply rooted, not scared of making mistakes

Because it is through these painstaking processes

We are able to come closer in finding out tomorrow's right answers  

Allowing the lessons and pain of yesterday's incorrect decisions 

Sharpen our precision for a close to perfect answers for the future 

Even when all the odds of time and life may be against us
