Identity

Everything I am is not me. 

Everything I am is simply a collection of everyone I have ever been around. 
None of it is my own. 

Physically and meta-physically, I am not myself. 

I am a masterpiece of life, surrounded by all the other masterpieces exactly like me in every originality. Everywhere I go, everyone I meet, every step I take, every breath of air I take in shapes me, changes me, reforms me to a new standard. 
I am simply a piece of clay in the hands of a world of potters. 

I fear this, that nothing about me is truly me; and that makes me wonder: "Is that fear even my fear?" 

--------------------------------

I am proud of this, that nothing about me is anything but me; and that makes me recognize: "Even my faults are my own." 

The world is simply a piece of clay in my potter's hands. 
Everywhere I go, everyone I meet, every step I take, with every breath of air I take in I shape, I change, I reform myself to my own standard. 
I am a masterpiece of life, surrounded by all the other masterpieces exactly like me in every originality.

Both in body and in mind, I am me. 

All of it is mine. 
Everything I am is defined by myself, like a self portrait of a man with no shame.  

Everything I do is by my own accord.
