I am a nobody

I am a nobody
I am a nobody

I am a nobody

I am what you make of me.

Same with anybody

In this, we aren’t different, are we.

It’s so foolhardy

To pass views on everyone we see.

We believe everybody

give-in to what they think we might be.


Each member around

Seem to know about you.

They go overboard

To know better than you do.

Weren’t you worried

To change their points of view.

Haven’t you fumbled,

Trying to say “No, that’s not true.”


Something is too wrong

In being bound by their cast.

The I is so strong

Single, yet evolving very fast.

Finding ways to throng

Want to create legacies, that last.

We don’t live long

Pick a Life, choices are so vast.


Stop thinking

I am a nobody.

  2. I read the below somewhere

    The person who YOU think you are
    The person who OTHERS think you are
    The person who YOU actually are

    If all 3 meets imaginatively, they cannot identify each other completely.

    So whatever we try, we cannot make all 3 equal at any point of time.. That’s life

  3. மதங்கள் மதம் பிடிக்க செய்யாவண்ணம்
    இதயத்துடன் வரைந்திட்டாய் திட்டம் நூறு.
    அறிவே அரியவை பெறவே உகந்ததென
    உணர்த்திய உன் நுண்ணறிவை வியக்கிறேன்….

    With this vision ….Don’t say …I am a nobody…

    வடமொழிக்கு வாழ்க்கைப்பட்டவர்
    தாய் மொழியை தவிர்த்துவிட்டவர்
    தமிழை ஒழித்துவிட்டால்,
    ஏழைகள் என்னாவர்.

    Read the last line….மத்தவங்க கஷ்டத்தை உணர்ந்தவன் எப்படி… NOBODY…ஆகமுடியும்…..

    Ponder……
