What Makes Me, Me?


What defines me? Is it what I wear, what I look like, what I do, who I know or what I know? This questions have been playing in my head for a while now and I couldn't come up with an answer....after listening to hours of inspirational songs, I thought to myself maybe music defines me. It makes me feel like I can change the world when I am listening to Bob Marley, it makes me feel like a fighter who wants to change my country when I am listening to K'naan, it makes me feel like a Warrior when I am listening to Peter Tosh, it also makes me feel like I need love When I am listening to Joe, it makes me feel like a revolutionist when I am listening to Mos Def. So is it really defining me or is it imposing its ways on me. Music is my company when I am alone, my friend when I am depressed, my companion when I wanna talk, my space when I wanna think......

I am a muslim, and this shouldn't be the way it is...but it is and there is little I can do to reduce it because that will make me lonely...I think!
