Unbecoming everything…

May be

The journey isn’t so much about becoming anything.

Maybe it’s unbecoming everything

that isn’t you

….so that you can

be who you were meant

to be

in the first place…

Such a very beautiful image, and the words so wise: the quest for the person we were meant to be.

Reblogged this on The World Is a Book… and commented:
This one is a masterpiece! If you like it (I know you will), please let Master Sriram know. While you are there, do click his precious post “A Song”! Both posts are philosophical, beautiful, and poetic…

This is an African Elephant right? Yet, you live in India? Did you take a trip to Africa? How often have you been to Africa?
