Who Am I?

- Was I created or always existed?
- When did I begin? In my Mother's womb or somewhere else before?
- Am I complete or still in construction?
- Am I awake or am I asleep?
- When do I live truly - when I'm conscious or sleeping?
- Do I exist right now, right here or elsewhere at the same time?
- Am I actually alive or just think I am?
- Am I living or just surviving?

What am I?

- Man or Machine?
- Free or Slave?
- Human or Extra-terrestrial?
- One or Many?
- Active or Passive?
- Introvert or Extravert?

Where am I going?

- Will I die or live forever?
- If I die, will I be conscious of being dead?
- Will it hurt?
- Will I be missed?
- Will I stop being counted when I'm gone?

Let Me Fly Away...

... let me dissolve into ethereal matter
... let me submerge into the vacuum of unconsciousness
... let me be absorbed by a sense of serendipity

... let me be free without being shackled
... let me be alone without being lonely
... let me be one of the parts rather than the sum of them

... just let me BE

... without questioning WHO I AM
... or WHAT I want to be
... may the HOW, WHERE and
... WHEN be dictated by chance

... let LOVE reign and PEACE abound
... let COURAGE settle in, out your FEARS
... let LIFE roll in as each day goes by

... evict DEATH if you can
... evict PESSIMISM and NEGATIVITY
... evict YOURSELF from this world if you must

... and when you get tired of Letting,
... Sub-Let,
... take a New Lease

... but Never, Never Sell-Out!
