A poem that I (re)found today - tis good to remember, especially in these times.

[c-rational]

I am not I.
I am this one
walking beside me whom I do not see,
whom at times I manage to visit,
and whom at other times I forget;
who remains calm and silent while I talk,
and forgives, gently, when I hate,
who walks where I am not,
who will remain standing when I die.


Juan Ramon Hernandez (1881-1958)
Spanish Poet
