Question: Do you think your life is a testimony of who you are!?
Best Answer - Chosen by Asker:
I think we are scared to live up to our full potential!. Most of us are even unaware of our own personal power!. Sometimes just knowing what we are capable seems like too much responsibility!.

I am proud of all that acknowledge a positive affirmation here!. I for one am still mastering the fine art of giving freely without expectations!. Www@QuestionHome@Com

I have to qualify that! My living is a testimony of who I am NOT!. But my desire is to live as who I am !. I have been a coward in my living not to live the way I wanted to as I thought I would be branded as a selfish person !.
Now, at this time in my life , I find the people did not care what I was or am and it was all my imagination!. The irony is that now I live a life of my choice but the others find it odd!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

Consider Philip Larkin's poem, Mr!. Bleaney

'This was Mr Bleaney's room!. He stayed
The whole time he was at the Bodies, till
They moved him!.' Flowered curtains, thin and frayed,
Fall to within five inches of the sill,

Whose window shows a strip of building land,
Tussocky, littered!. 'Mr Bleaney took
My bit of garden properly in hand!.'
Bed, upright chair, sixty-watt bulb, no hook

Behind the door, no room for books or bags -
'I'll take it!.' So it happens that I lie
Where Mr Bleaney lay, and stub my fags
On the same saucer-souvenir, and try

Stuffing my ears with cotton-wool, to drown
The jabbering set he egged her on to buy!.
I know his habits - what time he came down,
His preference for sauce to gravy, why

He kept on plugging at the four aways -
Likewise their yearly frame: the Frinton folk
Who put him up for summer holidays,
And Christmas at his sister's house in Stoke!.

But if he stood and watched the frigid wind
Tousling the clouds, lay on the fusty bed
Telling himself that this was home, and grinned,
And shivered, without shaking off the dread

That how we live measures our own nature,
And at his age having no more to show
Than one hired box should make him pretty sure
He warranted no better, I don't know!.
