Who Am I?

'Who am I?" often considered an amnesiac's first words after they recover from their long coma (as depicted in movies). But what I feel about this question is, it is the ultimate question of life. You answer it and you have been a genius in your life.

See, the point of your life is to know why you are here, as in you are born with a specific work to be done and you don't die without finishing it. Lets not go to the belief in such stuff. I might as well be offending the rationalists who come across this blog, so people let me explain myself for this here and come over to you. So its like you are born with a certain aim to be accomplished by you and you do all the stuff needed to achieve it in your lifetime. Fine. But how do you know what you are supposed to do until you know "who" exactly you are? So in your view are things clear that "Who am I?" is the million dollar question you need to ask yourself before you accomplish the biggest thing of your life? Yes it is!

Now coming to rationalists or rather let me put it as believers of science. Right, so coming to you first let's see you have your lifetime aim already, to make the whole world literate that everything in the universe has a scientific logic behind it, right? OK. So first for people to accept your ideas you need to be powerful enough? Religion was born when science was born but religion became more important thats why rationalists like you are comparatively less in number. And why did this happen? Easy, because religion had more appealing leaders who were more famous among the common masses. If there had been a scientist more famous or even equally famous, science would have been another religion much earlier! So you need to create an identity of yourself among the masses as "a person to be believed in come what may". But for that first you need to know yourself to an extent of perfection, more troubling than being religious but science demands the impossible from her believers doesn't she? So identifying yourself first to an extent of perfection begins with a simple question whose answer can be as complicated as you can even dream, rather nightmare, about. And the question is, "Who am I?"

I am writing this blog but I myself have no idea as to where the answer to this question lies or how I am going to reach to it. But what I do know is, my deep thinking has given way to more mature outlook on life and that shall help me find my identity not my friend not my parents not anybody else, everything of that sort is just koah-koah-koash! My identity needs serious work from my part and thats all no one's help is needed after i begin to start journeying myself, the moment i start walking, though a little help is not a mistake. But won't you not feel better if you reached your goal all by yourself? Yes it would! But it's kind of a bit too late for me, I have taken help from many people till date so my journey is never all by myself done, so is most of yours. So the whole point of writing this blog is, ask a question to yourself and try searching for an answer; try not to outsource unless it is highly important that you do; but the question is "Who am I?".
Until my next post,
