If so, it's a consequence of being old.  :lol:

I would say the 'personality' evolves in real time with the accumulation of new experiences and memories.

Learning not to touch the fires of intense emotions after playing with love certainly is a goal to strive for but it can be a struggle to 'lose awareness' of something, it's certainly something I haven't been able to do well.

Personally, with intense experiences, thinking it through, taking foundational lessons and not jumping into emotional quicksand(negative thought loops) has helped me maintain a level of peace.

I agree. one must learn from previous mistakes made in past relationships. but one should remember people are different. and honesty should be first brought to light. such as flaws and dislikes. once both parties can come to not deal but rather accept the other person for those things then a relationship can form on a better understanding.
Good Vibes,
DS

A person I spoke with a couple months ago had the idea that who a person is never dies, and that even though I'm a young adult for example, my 16-year old self still resides deep within me.

However, there have been certain points in my past where I felt myself die.  Not literally or physically, but the person who I was just completely vanished away. 

What are your thoughts on this?





If you can be honest with yourself .. Like really honest , its possible to kill yourself. What that means is something probably related to a change in your brain chemistry. If your not honest then you can just keep extending your personality rather than resetting it like being for or anti something, heads and tails etc. The two sides which make up the whole, when you kill yourself it's like you go back to the whole rather than being caught up in the sides thing, aka duality 'I think'.

In reality though your always going to be somewhat caught up in between the sides unless your willing to throw it all away and be known as a nutjob which in turn will ruin your place in society making it very hard to find a mate and reproduce. I.e betraying your own genetics which could be argued is the sole reason you are here.  :vag:
