On identity
The negation of oneself allows a new form of identity-less personas. This sounds like a multiple identity bipolar psychological problem. Yet, when one loses his own skin, and get out of the cocoon, a beautiful butterfly will emerge. Free your mind from the downgrading thoughts and ideas that pull you down to the unholy norms, the societal craved boundaries. Do not chain your brain and lock it down. You are not a prisoner, you are not a prisoner.
Free your imagination. Wake-dream about Borges Library of Babel. Be Zhuangzi’s butterfly. Wonder about nothing and everything. Travel into a deep minded state where you are everyone and everyone is you. Be the wind and sunken the ships of the mind invaders.
Accept your own skin and image. But most importantly define who you really are. At least, know your boundaries, and then break them. Create new milestones, challenge yourself and outskirt your predefined limitations. Get out of your comfort zone, declare yourself free from all that chain you down. Then go back to your comfort zone and then out again. Accept who you are, and then work around this persona. Be lazy, but know how to avoid it when you need to. Know how you actually work. Understand your brain and realize your potential.
Know that you are capable of change. Know that you have a potential and a goal. It might not yet be clear. And it might be not fixed. It might be that you have to decide what to do and aim for something no matter what it is. And it might be that you are a wanderer, you go where life throws you.
On another note, when I think and wonder, occasionally I consider that the wrong and right only lies in our brain. The wrong and right are merely a reflection of our upbringing. It is for me the same reason how you speak and present yourself. The exact combination of words you utter to describe yourself and use general talks. Sure, there may be fundamental basics that elevate us from being another specie in the animal kingdom to a civilized ahead of the curve dominant species. It is also inherited that no matter how advanced we are, it is evident that we sometimes tend to strip out of our civilized gowns and regress back to our animalistic instincts. It can be fun sometimes, but can also be horrifying and alarming.
To be capable of changing your thoughts and ideas is a fundamental process and a stepping stone in ones existence. To be capable of understanding one another, to reason our thoughts and why are we who we are, is crucial for personal peace. We are not casted into predefined bricks. We need to change, we have to change. We have to doubt our thoughts and existence, in order to find our true identities and be capable to change our realities and make any progress.
