Xtra # just a little more

 Disclaimer: I am participating in Blogging from A-Z challenge 2022 and this is my post for X # Xtra "Just a little bit🀏 more" 😁

When I was young and my favourite dish was cooked 

I always tried to take an extra helping when no one looked 🀫

When my Dad bought pastries 🍰 for us 

I forever wanted a little extra and created a fuss

As I grew older I wish I  had a little extra pocket money πŸ’° 

To buy bright new clothes and make my days sunny 🌞 

Invariably I always wished πŸ’­only if 🀞

I was a little extra taller,  🀏

Physically and mentally stronger πŸ’ͺπŸ’ͺ

My eyes are cheerful and brighter πŸ‘€

My brain, extra sharper πŸ€“

So that I had answers to any question whatsoever πŸ€” 

I forever wished to be more street-smart ☺and wittyπŸ˜‰

So that wonderful responses didn't have to wait for my lazy stimuli πŸ˜’πŸ˜

How I wished to get a great job in my career πŸ€‘

And have beautiful things to make my life merrier🀩🀩

All said and done, I was never contented with whichever way I was πŸ˜’

Looking for out and out perfection without any reason or cause

πŸ˜‘πŸ˜‘πŸ˜‘πŸ˜‘πŸ˜’πŸ˜’πŸ˜’

BUT ONE PROBLEM ALWAYS REMAINED πŸ€”

HOW WAS THE BENCHMARK TO BE OBTAINED 😬😬

EVEN IF I REACHED A POINT HOW WAS THAT TO BE MAINTAINED πŸ˜’πŸ˜’

HOW THIS SELF-MADE IDEOLOGY WAS TO BE SUSTAINED πŸ™„πŸ™„


It was only much later did I realize,  πŸ™‚

Everything had its price 

The EXTRA WEIGHT of trying to get ahead πŸ˜”

Will only create pressure on my real happiness ☹

I am capable of managing my life πŸ™‚πŸ™‚πŸ™‚

I didn't need to get out of my skin for my talents to maximize 😲

 I need not be an ideal or a model of person πŸ˜• 

That wouldn't make me any more or any less awesomeπŸ˜‡πŸ˜‡ 

People like being friends with those who have faults and misgivings 😁😁

Companionship with someone perfect can after all be too unsettling 😐

REPERCUSSIONS #

So now I feel I don't want anything extraπŸ€πŸ™„ from the ordinary πŸ˜€

Whatever I have both inner and outwardly is after all satisfactory πŸ™‚πŸ™‚


LESSON LEARNT πŸ‘ 

I like being the person next door πŸ˜‡

Very approachable and normal to the core πŸ˜€

If I had to add that extra to my ordinary I would become someone else 🀷

For this life, I would happily like to be just like my own self πŸ€—πŸ€—


🀩🀩🀩🀩🀩🀩🀩

MAYBE ONE DAY WHEN I GET  A CHANCE TO SHINE🌞

THAT DAY, THE PLEASURE OF BEING MYSELF SHALL  BE ENTIRELY MINE 🌝🌝🌝
