Is living up to other people’s expectations and not your owns worth it?

Living up to people’s expectations may sometime be a nightmare

Stepping between lines and careful not to collapse

Pressure added on stress and disbelieve

I’d rather go with the flow, perhaps.

So all this makes me wonder

Why be better when the best is already yours?

Why pay attention to unrealistic rules as a command?

Why pressured more and more??

The stairway to perfection lies miles ahead but

What if someone walked under a ladder or stepped on a crack

Unfortunately, I learnt the hard way

Going the hard way will definitely break your back…

The question is, is it worth it?
