Unforgiven

This morning was meant to be different from other days as I drove along to my office oblivious of the humdrum of the moving traffic, yet somehow aware, listening to music. I always had a varied taste in music and have never laid much emphasis on lyrics, but today was meant to be different. As the tracks changed, my ear caught the line "That never from this day His will they'll take away". The line from the song "Unforgiven" seemed so poignant in a time when I have been contemplating about the very purpose of my life as a husband, as a father, as friend, as a .... As a someone that I never was and as a someone I never will be. All these years I have been a someone to somebody but in reality I have never known me, what I've felt, what I've known, never free, never will be.

But today was meant to be different. Today was meant for an awakening...for how long I don't know but it was a start to realize who am I. My purpose in this life as a husband, as friend, as a father, as a someone to somebody as I would want and not as how I would like them to perceive. "That never from this His will they'll take away".
