    “COMING FORTH INTO THE LIGHT

    I was born the day
    I thought:
    What is?
    What was?
    And
    What if?

    I was transformed the day
    My ego shattered,
    And all the superficial, material
    Things that mattered
    To me before,
    Suddenly ceased
    To matter.

    I really came into being
    The day I no longer cared about
    What the world thought of me,
    Only on my thoughts for
    Changing the world.”
