Phoenix Returns

Be Yourself, Everyone Else is Taken..

mimpi
It was most futile
The river ne'er stops flowing
And I found myself

How much hard we try we cannot change the person who doesn't want to. We are left with two choices. Either we flow with the river or we stand aloof and watch it flow. Letting go our individuality would be something that I rather not see myself doing. I can only be a wise watcher and learn from it. And from the time I started doing it, I found myself. I found myself after long years of living others lives.

This is a tribute to all those fighter people who are just themselves and who have not given up even in the face of adversaries. Kudos...

    This is just so awesome. Well put. I feel at times that life is like we are the Salmon, swimming upstream against the life...yet never giving up, always fighting for survival. We are stronger for the struggle. Nicely done Mimpi. :-)
