Know Thyself

Is it so hard to know thyself, Difficult to believe in oneself, Hard to trust yourself, Trying over and over to know myself. We all try to know science When all our life’s reasons are not in silence Yet we become part of a play In which we are the actors and scripting the way Life makes it too complicated to understand oneself As you become too busy to be someone else Alas, it is not unknown , that we have all become a clone A replica of what we see, And not whom we want to be I am still trying to be one with myself Trying to find the true potential within self Understanding the glass is half full not empty That I have much , if not plenty It’s when I can be true to myself To Know Thyself ---You can purchase my book of Poems "Temet Nosce"------Where you will find the rest of my poems-- --- Mustafah Mun

and when you realize you have a "full glass" the world has everything you could possibly ever need in it if you look, search and are open to the gifts...then you will be aware. Light & Love
