I Am


I Am

 

I Am

A consumer of carbs.. Full of energy

I Am

 A single mass of protein... Full of muscle and strength

I Am

A bundle of cells... expanding as I age

I Am

 A skeleton... For I hold my body high

And yet? I am so much more...

I am a beacon of disappointment (According to my parents)

I am their trophy son (According to my parents)

With parents, It is a universal truth that they are the epitome of childhood confusion.

In my head

I Am

An explorer... Discovering the hidden secrets of the Earth

I Am

A fighter... Overcoming overwhelming obstacles since 1998

Obstacles like how to grab the remote from my couch when it is so far away...

I Am

A student... who knows how to do Integrals but not Taxes

I Am

A learner... Who is curious about the vast community around me

I Am

What I have done

I Am

What I have seen

And I Am

What I create of myself from the empty slate I had since birth

I grow. Therefore I Am.
