Who are you?

That question I ask myself

When I see my reflection

In the clear waters of the stream

Around me

Only the silence of voices

And the calm of the winds

But the song of birds

And the murmur of running waters

Make me realize that I am not alone

Everything connects, unites

Then, once more I ask

Who are you?

Now with the sure knowledge of the answer that will come

“You are a particle of protoplasm

That covered the Earth

At the beginning of its formation”

“You are a divine creation

Made for immortality”

“You are a being in constant evolution”

Therefore, always evolve

To reach perfection

Of myself…
