Man has three wishes 

To love
Be loved in return 
And have peace 
That’s it

That’s all the wishes there is
That’s all the wishes there needs to be
But to get there 
What all acrobatics he needs to perform 

You gotta go to work
You gotta earn money
You gotta be wealthy 
You gotta have a house 

You gotta have a car
You gotta have a good job
A hefty salary
So as to be able to go on a vacation 

To the Bahamas 
On a cruise ship
Only then would love come to you?

If love would come to you only then 
Is it love really?

If peace would come to you only then 
Is it worth pursuing it still ?

Why all the complications?
Just go on and fall in love 
Just do what you were created to do

Take on your gifts 
Your talents and make it productive 
Work on them with discipline
And make them a skill 

That can’t be denied existence
That can be admired enough
To make a statement 
And earn a living 

Enough to feed yourself and your family
Do you still need a home a car and a bank account ? 

If you make enough to live today off of it
And make enough to have a bank account to keep for emergencies 
Then be happy 

Be satisfied 
Move on and enjoy life 
Enjoy wife
Enjoy children 

Fulfill your wishes 
Desires 
Have a life 
And be in peace 

That’s all you need to do
Why take it up a notch
And be constantly in pain
In suffering 

That you can’t even enjoy 
Your wishes
Your life
Your living 

Could you? 
Be in peace would you?
Be in peace, don’t pursue riches
Don’t pursue vacations

Pursue happiness 
With your wife 
Your children 
Your life

Be in peace 
That’s all you need to do 
Be in peace ✌🏽
