REFLECTIONS © 2011

Only now, after

Abandoning the old condition,

Do I realize what I was,

And that what I was is part of my formation.

It is in the retrospective glance,

After change and transformation,

That I see the reflection of what I once was,

And understand the evolution.

The steps taken, the mistakes made,

And the lessons life has taught me,

Are now part of my essence,

And of the person I’ve become.

By leaving the old condition behind,

I revisit the past with new perception,

And recognize the journey I’ve walked,

As a path of deep reflection.
