I am an enigma.
A contradiction in terms.
I am two extremes who've met in the middle, and split apart.
I am the calm before my storm.
I am my own best friend, and my own worst enemy.
I am my own healer, and also my own personal hell.
Only I can make me, or break me.
I am the wizened crone, in the mind of the maiden.
I am a brilliant star in a dark universe.
I am a comedian in a world that hates to laugh.
I am the caring nurse that forgets self care.
I am the prophet who sees the future in the past.
I am the voice of words already spoken.
I am the poet of things yet thought.
I smile through tears..
I cry with joy.
I fix all the others while falling apart.
I am everything no one else is, was, or ever will be.
Wore out and broken, but built better every day.
I am the student teacher..I am here to learn what I already know and teach what I'm learning.
I am an enigma.
But then, so are you.
"Friend, do not concern yourself with who I am; you will never know. I do not want you to accept anything I say. I do not want anything from any of you; I do not desire popularity; I do not want your flattery, your following. Because I am in love with life, I do not want anything. These questions are not of very great importance; what is of importance is the fact that you obey and allow your judgement to be perverted by authority. Your judgement, your mind, your affection, your life are being perverted by things which have no value, and herein lies sorrow." Jiddu krishnamurti
