Breeze and me!


Sitting on an easy chair in the balcony and  was wondering, what if I could converse with breeze?
Like a soothing music which is making me comfortable to feel its presence…



Me: (though I knew the answer) asked
 Who are you?

Breeze: I’m just what you call as, breeze.

I wasn’t convinced by its answer. So!

Me: What does the phrase “what YOU call as” mean?
Aren’t you what we call you? Are you?

 Couldn’t feel its presence for a while.  After few seconds…  

Breeze: yes, I’m not what “you” call me. 

Was awestruck for a jiffy!

Me: But why?  

Breeze: Coz I’m just me! No name can define who I am.
The way I’m free to move around, I even have the freedom to be just me. Nothing attached to it. "Sometimes, name creates limitations".

Before it vanished… in its sarcastic tone...

Breeze: Who are you?

My eyes wide open, confusion creeping in..

I dint know what to answer.

Supposedly the possible answers would be:
I’m Shilpa? I’m an energy body? A creation of the universe?  A human being?  A thing with flesh, skin and brain?  A combination of mind and soul? It can go on…

But all these answers can symbolize others also! So who am I??
 I’m. not what other's call me. Termed for the convenience? i guess. 


I believe, the quest is endless... In the path of glory one has to find his/her own self.



As it’s truly pleasing to be an explorer!
