<p>I gave myself sufficient period to examine and understand you well.<br>After all the times I was attempting to give up on you and get relieved from you because I couldn't handle your nature.<br>But I have realized that you are not as horrible as I thought you are.</p>

<p>Existence!<br>You are just real in your ways,<br>And you just need acceptance and tolerance.<br>I recall I was about to be the next looser of you dear life,<br>But then I read up and understood how you operate.</p>

<p>Life you turned to be very harsh on me some days,<br>But you required me to be decisive.<br>When some days you delayed me opportunities…<br>You expected me to be forbearing.<br>There is a time when you swerved everyone against me,<br>And that's when you expected me to be self-motivated.<br>And when you came back with remix and showered me with joy,<br>I knew I desired to value it.<br>When I was busy bothered about you,<br>I was too sightless to recognize that you were busy assembling things for me.<br>Existence, you are so wonderful and precise.</p>
