My Self

Who is my self ?

“My self” is not the profession I’m doing

“My self” is not the respect people give to me

“My self” is not a satisfaction feeling of what I have achieved

“My self” is not all the good deed I did

“My self” is not about the measurement of what I have now

“My self” is not what people say about me

“My self” is not the wonderful dreams I want to realize

“My self” is not artificial proud of the past

“My self” is not a social status

“My self” is not about doing something which is anti-main stream for the sake of being anti-main stream person only

If people recognize the salt from its salty taste, then on what base “my self” should be recognized?

Have I found the base of my dignity?

I hope that I never forget to always seek “my true self”.
