You ask yourself, Why not today,
The mind replies, Why today,
For tomorrow is there,
And there is the day after.
You ask yourself, Why not loan him money,
The mind replies, Why should I,
It might be a bad investment,
It doesn’t matter if he is family or friend.
You ask yourself, Why not cook today,
Why should I do that, The mind replies,
There are other people who do the job,
That’s why they have restaurants, and money.
You ask yourself, Why not rest today,
The mind replies, There is no time for rest,
You want money to survive, It’s never enough,
The luxuries you have, is because of ‘money’.
You ask yourself, Why not make friends,
The mind replies, You can’t spend time with friends,
Work is so busy, And work is earning,
If you work, You can attract any person.
You ask yourself, Why not live,
The mind replies, What do you mean,
I am living right now, Its work and earn,
That is what is living, right?
And You couldn’t reply.
