About Structure & Routine


Annoying and tedious.

Harmful for the adventurous,

passionate, and free soul.

Routine cripples!

If we don’t agree on that

you probably enjoy 

or have accepted 

routine in your life. 

 

A boring live it is

when you keep doing the same things, 

more attractive and exciting 

is expecting the next new thing.

Now, that’s a way to live! 

 

But there is one little thing

-more like big-

that I do appreciate from routine.

Have you heard about structure?

 

To the adventure it brings composure,

not letting it become obnoxious.

Preparing for the unexpected to become disastrous.

 

So let’s meet in the middle.

Discouraging the idle 

in monotony. Stimulating the mind  

with a pleasant surprise. 

 

Living to the fullest,

Keeping death astray.

 

Without stress, 

letting the moment predict the day. 

Right amount of order & freedom

to make this life the best.

I am a student in foreign lands, searching to learn and get inspired in new ways. Had some hassles and some relaxing moments I can write about.
