WHO AM I?
A tale from Attar of Neishapur.
The lover knocked at his Beloved's door.
"Who knocks?" said the Beloved from within.
"It is I," said the lover.
"Go away. This house will not hold you and me."
The lover withdrew and pondered for years on the words the Beloved had said.
Then he returned and knocked again.
"Who knocks?"
"It is you."
The door was immediately opened.
