Who are you?

I am very sure once in while, the question of who we really are pops up in our mind. Do we really have an answer to this question? A lot of us make the mistake of thinking that the real person is the physical body who spends time toiling, earning money, enjoying life, acquiring wealth and at the end returns to dust during death. Also associated with this question is the true meaning of life. The beginning of the journey to self discovery, usually starts with the question "who am I?". Well it is time to clear the air on this. Man is a spirit being, and this means beyond the physical body is the true man. The physical body is a covering, like a clothing we put on and which we can put off at the end. In as much as we pay attention to our physical body, our spiritual body also needs attention. Lack of proper attention to our spiritual body leads to various distortions or imbalance character. The physical body needs proper food, exercise, relaxation, a right environment, and the right set of activities for proper development while the spiritual body needs love, meditation, motivational words, kindness,hope, patience, and peace for development. The spirit controls the body, and not the other way round. A good spirit will always put forth good fruits and radiate light for others to rely on.
