THE MOST DIFFICULT QUESTION TO ASK

I want my people to let us start on an enlightening journey with this inspired piece. This is one of greatest discovery I discover some time ago. Let me ask you this and am sure in your mind right now, the answer will be the regular one. Who are you? The next thing is “My name is bla bla bla…………” Am I right?

The realization to write on this topic dawn on me after watching Cormega (one of the NewYork underground rapper) DVD though after several thinking on my new post.

Discovering your true self, hmmm……the most important question of all is not mostly asked or tackled. Some ask what the purpose of humanity is while few people are asking the most important question of all “Who am I”. But what good are the answers to other questions if we don’t even know who we are, most of us are asleep.

We exist, but don’t even live

We see but don’t watch

We hear, but don’t listen

We speak empty words and eat without tasting. We rush on our arms and the grass beneath our feet. Why do we pass through life unaware of the greatest treasure of all? “Our True Self”

            Many of us were raised by imperfect parents in an imperfect atmosphere; we are exposed to criticism by others. First, we are criticized; then we criticized ourselves, we identified with the negative thoughts, we believed that the thoughts were us, later we started criticizing others in the vain hope that by dragging them down we would be uplifting ourselves, what a pity!

To discover your true self, you need to understand the works of things, thoughts and the thinkers. They stimulate our senses and cause thought to arise in our consciousness, thoughts are powerful tools. I am not the thoughts that flood my mind but I am the thinker that uses the thoughts to create, that’s our legacy. That’s what we were meant to be.

           

Unfortunately, many are still trapped in their thoughts; they don’t realize that they are the thinker and not the thought. They allow their thought to control them instead of them controlling their thoughts. This is a recipe for disaster because our thoughts are created by things that we do not count to and events that we have no control of, therefore, if we allow ourselves to drift in the tide of our thoughts, we will have no control over our destination. We must reclaim our true self, the thinker and analyses our thought as they appear. We must be critical thinkers, tossing aside every useless or negative thought while using every positive thought to bring us nearer to our full potential. All difficult things have their origin in that which is easy and great things in that which is small.

            So, ask yourself once again “Who am I”
