Who am I ?

Published by

on

I know my name, my whereabouts, my life, my love, everything…

But I don’t know my soul..

I am in quest of the eternal self..

Definitely one day I will.

With my eyes and ears closed, with all my senses sealed, I may attain that realization.

Will I lose my love when I reach that point..?

But how can I be alive then, without my love..?

I am afraid..I am truly afraid.

Or I prefer to believe that it is the realization of love which binds everything together in this world.

    Fear makes us fearful, a vicious circle … my twenties were pretty well lost to it.

        That was 40 years ago. Life, children, grandchildren and trying to be creative have all mellowed me, so I’m pretty laid back now.

    love and self awareness coexist ~and i think the real love is relaxing the hold, letting go. It’s very convoluted. Read it somewhere 🙂

    Nice questions to ask yourself. This means that you’re more than just flesh and blood:)

            “Who are you?’, You asked, and I warded you off!
            ‘Are you this..or aren’t you that?’,You ventured again
            And this time I smiled away the query
            …At times it is best to know less
            Lest we hurt ourselves and others”
