DEFINED


I am not my tribe, I am not my race, I am not my religion, I am me... I am not defined by whats in my bank account... Or wallet for that matter, I am a man... A human full of pride and esteem, I am the soul deep within me, I am my compassion and passion, Please dont be fooled by this facade that is vanity, Do not subject me to your opinion of me, I am bigger than that... I am larger than clothes, money and women, I am greater than the need to succeed and getting ahead of the pack, I am the deep sense of love. Define me... By my essence I say, Define me by what I stand for... What I believe in and hold dear, Because I am my own definition... No regrets to what I am made of. ✔Ome Asiligwa 2015
