Fast Lane, Mid Lane and Side Lane

When I see many on the fast lane,

When I see many, many on the middle lane,

When I see many, many, many on the slow lane,

When I see the few on the side lane (is this an illusion?)

I see myself on this lane – the side lane.

On the high way,

Only the fire hydrant engine,

Only the ambulance,

Only the police,

Use this lane -  this side lane for quick access to provide protection, attention and safety.

On the high level network,

Only a few,

Use this lane – this side lane for easy access to reach his or her destination.

Yet for the few many on this side lane (is this an illusion?)

There aren’t quick access.

There aren’t easy access.

Few many are in this lane – the side lane

How come?

Reader may ask.

There’s no turn back the clock.

Some have been in the fast lane.

Some have been in the middle lane.

Some have chosen to be in the side lane.

Some have been fallen into the side lane.

Yet for the few many in the side lane,

Many questions assail their minds,

Strength of endurance to walk, continue to walk while seeing many go ahead

Strength of courage to take the step,

what is the destination looks like?

where is the destination?

Yet, for the few many in the side lane,

Take a step,

Take another step,

Take a step again,

Take another step,

Believing beauty, bright and bountiful awaits.

For my fellow pilgrims on the side lane,

My prayer for us:

Make us glad for as many days as our afflictions,

And as for many years as we have seen evil.

Let Your favour be upon us,

And establish the work of our hands upon us,

Yes, establish the work of our hands!
