SWEET AND SOUR

Today is one of those days when everything around you seems to sway in different directions nothing is water tight anymore so i was thinking of how life works and how different things get into perspective in different ways then it hit me;
You cannot judge the sweetness of the jack fruit by its outside its rough and prickly and amorphous, but so sweet and juicy and all things amazing. You don't get this by looking at its rough edges, no! you would actually miss the extascy if you stop there.
Then i thought of the lemon, with its soft and mysteriously slippery exterior. So amazing to feel, getting even softer with every touch, spraying you with a tingling yet sweet scent, but really bitter on the inside. That too you cant get by just enjoying its amazing exterior.
The beauty and ambiguity of life throwing all kinds of things at us all almost in equal amounts and no user manuals but instinct common sense and personality to make it work and give it form and meaning. Sometimes our lives seem so lonely, uneven and ugly just like the outside of the jack fruit but we should never forget the sweetness and marvel on our inside. Don't try to compete with the lemon next to you, be you and embrace you.

I AM
I am not the kind you meet and say forever, at first,
But I am the kind that would make you want forever.
I am not the kind you love at first sight,
But i am the kind who gives and never takes away.
I am not the kind you would call perfect,
But i am the kind you would find complete.
I am who I am,
And I am who you need!
I am that fire that reminds you of the importance,
I am the bite that makes you shuffle.
I am the blanket for your cold,
I am the relief for your pain.
I am the scrub for your sprain.
I am the sponge for your skin.
I am what you need!
