We all want to be someone - known, admired and loved. But as I grow I want to be a no-one. By being nothing, my soul seeks detachment - freedom from pitiable desires.
But the fact of matter is that as I seek detachment - people around me want to attach themselves to me. What I sought in my childhood and youth and didn't get - in my middle ages I get it but am not wanting it.
The knowing that inspite of being a `no-one' - when I am treated as a someone - I `act' the someoneness to help the people around me.
The day I am totally no-one - I AWAIT! Isn't it foolish to WANT to be NO-ONE, when you are already no-one.
