Inspire from Within


It all starts somewhere.

Internally,

Externally,

Or neither.

For me, it started inside.

Not exactly happily,

But, a realization,

Get better or die quickly.

The first step, I took a wrong turn.

I got closer to the end, but closer to the goal.

Then happiness came,

The healthy path finally possible.

So finally,

Here I am.

Healthier than before

Healthier than the first step,

Taking inspiration from all those wrong turns,

To finally make the right ones.
