Lifestyle,
valuing aesthetics,
being minimalist or space cluttering,
influenced by preferences and personality.

Social interactions,
self serving or people pleasing,
be it our position or emotions,
depending on desires of a company.

Working profession,
out of choices or compulsions,
consequences of learning or education,
with the skills or surrounding needs.

Personal life,
fulfilling or lots of troubles,
misunderstandings or different struggles,
or simple lack of communication.

As time changes,
we experience different phases,
bonds are made, some got broken,
there will be regrets and disappointments.

So, what it is that should remain,
in our memories as experiences,
when we contemplate as days goes by,
what was the meaning of our life?
