Who am I? Who are you? Who is who? I have a name. You have a name. We all have a name. One each or more. Some real, some fake. By names we are known. That's certain. But what's a name? Just a label may be. A sound or enery. Or simply a word. To me, its nought but a game. Used like in hide and seek. That we play to win. But we loose or win. Or draw sometimes. You won't agree? I don't mind. Because time 'll tell. Just wait and see. It won't be long. We w'd be gone. Just like the goners before. Time brings us. Time takes us. Nothing stays the same. Neither name nor fame. Life is a game. Change is the rule. Follow it or quit. It is tough. It is rough. But it's worth a play. Play good or bad, play real. Never fake. Play not with brain but with heart. B,cause brain knows no feeling. Only the heart does. You know? We are bound togehter by our hearts. Not by our brains. So, when time comes, it's better to go smiling. Rather than weeping. Intelligence can pass science and math exams but not life's test. Knowledge can buy money. Money can buy beau girl/boy friends, big houses and gadgets. A lots indeed. Money is power. Yes, right. But it's not all powerful. There are many things money can't buy. Money can't buy love. Sure you know this. More. Money can't buy life. Money can't buy a piece of mind. Forget about happiness. Money can't buy family, parents and siblings. Friends? I don't know. May be or may be not be. But I 'd say no. B'cause true friends stick around you forever. Even when you are penniless.
Well, let me get back on track before I go too far. Let me not astray. Actually, that's the whole point here. That's what I am trying to tell. That's, let's not go astray. Let us not be slaves of our names. Let's not be defined by our names. Let's not just be identified with it. I say, let's rise above our names. We can if we want. Let's be defined by our way of life. Let's be identified with our deeds instead. Of course, I mean by being a good human being. By good I mean, good to self, good to others and good to the world. To be more specific, be kind, loving and caring. Everybody needs it. In fact, more than money. More than anything. More than ever. And by doing that or by giving that you give the best and the most. When you do that you don't need a name. I don't know what one would be known as then. Perhaps, a great person. If not, at least a good/kind person. But one thing I am absolutely sure. One will be carrying enough tickets to pass through the gates of karma. Besides, if you want to be remembered a bit longer on earth, it's never because of the name rather because of how well you lived you life. Not so much for self but more so for others. I believe so.
