MYSELF

In my childhood….I watch MYSELF drawing a red line…

MYSELF started drawing the line on my sketchbook…soon….ran off the paper….

But MYSELF keep drawing the red line along the floor…..

And than on the wall….and right out the door…..

I shouted for MYSELF to come back….but WHY I AM WORIED?….I said to me….

MYSELF….will soon run out of crayons or may be get tired…..

One hour… two hours…

I get up and shout again.

No answer.

So….I followed the red line.

That was thirty years and twenty thousand miles ago.

Once…I can’t see the line…

But soon found out….Oh….it’s there….just too faint for me to see.

But now I can.

And I will follow it...

Until....

I find MYSELF.

    You always knew that you are on the other side of the defining line, but, you challenged yourself to cross that line. But the Red line that defined your limits was always drawn further and further from yourself so the edge was forever out of reach…

    I loved these self-reflective and self KNOWING lines of your's:

    I shouted for MYSELF to come back….but WHY I AM WORIED?….I said to me….

    MYSELF….will soon run out of crayons or may be get tired…..

    And Dar Sahib's comments stretch these into such recognition (as Iqbal said to use the witness of the THREE WITNESSES (LIGHTS): first your own inner light - as in the post above - then another witness and then - of course to LISTEN for Allah's witness (quietly or not) - which underlines many of your posts spoken or not. :)

    Notice always how resonant your gift of expression constantly is with your fans perchance you should waver in recognition of your calling. :)
