I Am

At times, undergoing significant losses and upheavals in life serves as a transformative process that allows us to let go of everything that does not align with our true essence. These experiences act as catalysts, helping us strip away the layers of external influences and false identities we may have accumulated. Through these challenging moments, we are given the opportunity to rediscover and reconnect with our authentic selves, ultimately remembering who we truly are at our core.

I am.

Once I lived a life of illusions.

I believed I was the name,

The body,

The thoughts and the emotions.

I believed I was the age,

The nationality,

The race,

The gender,

The family and the relationships.

I believed I was the possessions,

The occupations,

The creations,

The awards,

The roles and the stages.

I believed I was the preferences,

The likes and dislikes,

The pain and pleasure.

I was lost in these definitions,

Confined to a narrow understanding of myself.

So I kept asking,

Who am I?

And life always answers.

Everything I am clinging to,

Folds apart.

Everything falls apart and I contract,

Filled with fears,

My fear of losing myself.

I resist,

I control and fight back.

Something must be done.

I need to save my life,

I need to save myself.

Desperately holding on to everything that makes me.

The more I cling,

The stronger gets the storm.

Life persists,

It wants to show me.

The pain is baffling and unbearable.

I can't fight anymore.

I'm losing everything,

I'm losing myself.

It's like I'm dying.

I surrender and die to everything that is not me.

Then I realise that I am.

The illusion dies.

I am left with nothing but myself.

Untethered,

Unattached,

Unencumbered,

Unburdened,

Undefined,

Unconfined.

Simply I am.

Peace.

Eternity.

Freedom.

Pure consciousness.

Peace.

Eternity.

Freedom.

Love.

Pure consciousness.

Pure being.

If I ever define and confine myself again.

I will die as many times as I need until I remember again.

Thank you,

Life.
