My good friend Vidya Sury, Collecting Smiles tagged me in her post ,offering a Haiku prompt,Have you ever felt born again?

It was a challenge for me, but I decided to attempt it.

I have had a long successful career. But as we all know, corporate life can be exhausting and repetitive, leaving no time for relaxation and fun.

In a ten-word story format, I describe my experience when I left the corporate race at the peak of my career.

For forty long years, I was running and chasing dreams.
I finally decided to stop running and start living my dreams.
I let go the corporate life, I was born again.
Rediscovered purpose, travelled and explored new cultures, took up hobbies.
It was a new beginning, and I was born again.

Thankyou Vidya Sury, Collecting Smiles and KSHernandez for this prompt that allowed me to attempt something new.
