Who am I, really?

Am I really the person I see?

Do I truly know myself?

Or is there another Me?

 

Sometimes I wonder…

Why am I really here?

What is my real purpose?

It would be nice if that were clear!

 

I know who I am not

or try not to be.

I don’t want be one that

steps up a ladder to be a bigger me.

 

I care for the students whom I mentor!

They are the reason for me.

For if they are successful,

I’m very content and happy! 

 

It really matters very little…

If I get credit for doing stuff.

What matters most to me is

making a diamond out of

one who was very rough

 

So, it’s good to know thy self,

and know there is a reason for me.

My purpose is to simply

help another person

be ALL they can possibly be!

 

That’s just ME!

A GREAT SHARING! WE LIVE FROM DAY TO DAY AND ALL WE CAN SAY IS THAT WE TRY TO DO WHATEVER IT IS THAT GOD HAS CALLED US TO DO. IF WE ARE FOLLOWING JESUS, HE LEADS US IN THE WAY WE SHOULD GO. WE ARE NON PERFECT BUT WE...TRY. AND AFTER THAT? WE CAN BASK IN THE KNOWLEDGE THAT WE ARE CHILDREN OF THE KING, PURCHASED WITH A GREAT PRICE, AMEN. THANKS FOR SHARING, JOHN AND CONTINUOUS BLESSINGS IN YOUR MINISTRY, INDEED. LOVE, BLESSINGS AND FAITH...HIS+INSPIRATIONS

Peace and Wisdom.

"Who Am I, Really?"
This composition stimulates awareness of ontologic nature, and leads one to cerebrate on the human being most ancient question. "Who Am I, Really?" has delivered its questions and points to be pondered with a maieutical poetic voice.

In reverent appreciation,

Andre Emmanuel Bendavi ben-YEHU

There is no greater joy than helping others, and expecting nothing in return.
