WHO AM I?

Who am I?

The usual everyday person.. (with my bundle of hopes,fears,angsts,hurts and dreams)


Someone who has given myself to life, unconditionally…

I do not fight my fears, but live through it …digest them to give me the energy to live…
I do not succumb to pressures, rather I let them squeeze the juice out of me...
I’m not attracted to power…I rather enjoy finding strength in my weaknesses..
I’m not enthralled by ambition…for I see life as one long pause between death and activity.
I do not look for guarantees in life….for I strongly anchor my persona to my own self and throw myself into life with no cautions…
I’m not dragged by my past…neither too tempted to look into the future…I’m someone who has allowed myself to submit to this moment…

Many times, the Ms.Cynic in me is overpowered by the Ms.Compassion in me..
So, backbiters, creeps and unkind human beings don’t hurt me anymore…
I walk past them with a sigh and a sense of amusement…

Sometimes, the romantic in me raises its head to invite me to plunge into the various hues and contours of life..
But the realist in me reminds me of the self-set boundaries and the hundred million deprived people around me…
So, I let them battle for a while…

At times, the pessimist in me wakes up to take stock of my losses..
Parallely, the optimist in me reminds me of the countless blessings of my life…
So, I resolve, I really have nothing to complain..

While I tread this path of life with my head in the clouds,but with my feet firmly planted on the ground…
I have resolved to live every moment fully...
Love unconditionally...
Give generously...
Think relentlessly...
Resolve quietly...
And recycle myself through the series of events called life …detached from life, yet not hostile to it..
