      How do you know who you are? You are complex beyond your own understanding; more complex than anything else that exists, excepting other people; complex beyond belief. And your ignorance is further complicated by the intermingling of who you are with who you could be.pic.twitter.com/SVEC6XmDfl

      You are not only something that is. You are something that is becoming— and the potential extent of that becoming also transcends your understanding.

      Everyone has the sense, I believe, that there is more to them than they have yet allowed to be realized. That potential is often obscured by poor health, misfortune, and the general tragedies and mishaps of life.

      But it can also be hidden by an unwillingness to take full advantage of the opportunities that life offers— abetted by regrettable errors of all sorts, including failures of discipline, faith, imagination, and commitment.

      Who are you? And, more importantly, who could you be, if you were everything you could conceivably be?

          I loved this chapter. Finding who I am is a complex, twisted, scary, joyful and hopefully even healing journey.

          I prefer to look operationally at what I do, could do, or want to do, rather than existentially at what I believe I am, could be or want to be.

          Further, I think much of the conflict and polarization we see today results from people evaluating what they believe others "are" or "are not" rather than what others do in context.

          I've been trying to figure that out for a long, miserable time.

          Yeah Jordan I get it “live up to your potential” but I’m terrified at the idea of what monstrosity would spawn out of me if one day I woke being “everything I could conceivably be” simultaneously

          I thought I really knew who I was at 25. Now, at 45, I realize I know almost nothing. I am better now than then across every metric. Still have some core nihilism that remains unassailable.

          No one can be everything, so he or she must wisely choose what they could be and what they should be. That we have limited options and times supports the process of becoming an individual, a unique and whole personality. Choose wisely.
