The Protagonist

After several days of searching for a preface and then finally giving up.. i found these two very interesting quotes...

I am the sum total of everything that went before me, of all I have been seen done, of everything done-to-me. I am everyone everything whose being-in-the-world affected was affected by mine. I am anything that happens after I'm gone which would not have happened if I had not come.
― Salman Rushdie, Midnight's Children

To be, or not to be: that is the question:
Whether 'tis nobler in the mind to suffer
The slings and arrows of outrageous fortune,
Or to take arms against a sea of troubles,
And by opposing end them?

― William Shakespeare, Hamlet

I am insignificant..
But a grain of sand
In the waves of the universe
Perhaps an apostrophe
In the creator's greatest verse

I am insignificant..
I last for a flicker
In the timeline of time
The last dregs of ether
In a casket of wine

I am insignificant..
A puny cog
In The Machine
No reins to the flow
A misfit in the scene

I am insignificant...
A tiny speck of light
In the flame of life
A forgettable page
In history's strife

Yet.. I am
The foundation stone
Of the song of creation
For me it was sung
To save me from damnation

Yet.. I am
With me all begins
For me it was wrought
All sins for me
And faith dearly bought

Yet.. I am
The master of MY fate
Sole owner of my ship
I take pride in mine
Be it all but a blip

I am..
The Protagonist
Around me all is spun
Fuel to the fire
Core to the sun

The world is a figment of my imagination, i change it on the whims of my mind....
