I me myself

Who am I?
Am i the person you feel i am,
Or am i different?
Am i same as my soul?
Am i my emotions?
Or are they formed from me?

Am i different from my personality?
Or my profession, relationships et al represent me?
Is my identity the result of all my environment?
Or are the way they are 'coz of me?

I wonder which is the source
And which is the destination...
I feel I am the culmination of all
The subjective and the objective self lives within me


The world exists the way it does only
because i see it that way...
The world is a reflection of me..
I see you in myself
You have contributed to me being myself
And i see a part of myself in you
So are we inseparable?
Are we then really 'different'?

My soul finds it equillibrium
In understanding that the world is the whole of parts
And we are part of the whole
I learn and grow from the world around me
And I contribute to its growth too

My identity stems from my world and from my inner soul.
