Ahead of the Curve

How to gain time to do what you love? Work harder in the present to take work away from the future

I have been on a long trip
A trip that has taken me far
Far away from this place
A place of relaxation and expression
The expression of my heart
A heart that lived many experiences
Experiences of growth and hardship
Hardships that have sponged my time away
Time I would rather spend with friends
Friends of the ink and pen
The pen that tells stories to all
Stories of a productive life
A life wrought with work and toil
Toil of both the present and future
A future that I have liberated
Liberated from all deadlines
Even deadlines that lie far ahead
Ahead of the curve, I now have freedom
Freedom to relax and breathe
Breathe slower, tensions calmed
The calm within the storm
A storm that ravaged my inner peace
This peace of mind, reclaimed
Reclaimed for a brief moment
A moment that will soon end
The end that will mark a beginning
A new beginning leading to tomorrow
And tomorrow, I will be here again
Again, I am free from hardship

Working today as an investment for tomorrow is a lovely idea to me. Don't we love our leisure after a bout of hard work! Leisure means doing what we love! Writing and sharing with friends. I find a lot of peace and a sense of accomplishment in your words. Sweet and simple thoughts are loved best, says I!
