on who you are.....
Like randall tells me, that i am layed back and chill, i find my self disociated, i find myself playing it cool.
Thats all good
other people find me as angry, sometimes i get a bit of a harshness and a wanna fight mentality, I may say things in my chit chat that revolve around fighting. i dont pick any fights but if someone wants to have a go we will.
Some people know me as an artist, which that i am.
Other find me as a wexican, only there to work hard so they don't have to.
Some find me as a gardener, creating beautiful landscapes for their and their neighbors enjoyment.
Some find me dull and burn't out.
Some have no faith and doubt all the things that i pursue.
when i talk i talk in the form of questions... why???? who what when where why how much?
Some think im to busy all i do is work work work, no time to play.
now why did i even write this post?

Because you realize that the nature of one's sense of identity is that it is entirely illusory, and that you wanted to illustrate this so that you could underscore the fact that, instead of concerning oneself with one's sense of self (or other's sense of yourself), one should instead simply direct one's focus and awareness into the act of being oneself?

 Peace.

The question of identity! Always a good one.
I often think of Don Juan when I think about the question of identity. He assumed many roles, many identities, yet he was absolutely sincere about each and every one of them. I don't think it's possible nor healthy for someone to try to define themselves, and trying to define others is reflective of a deeper insecurity about themselves.
If you're in a situation where you find yourself very chill and calm, then be very chill and calm, be it with all your heart and all your being. Be total, don't let even a gram of your being be other than very chill and calm. It's when you start dividing yourself and overanalysing that suffering, insecurity, doubt, etc. enter the picture.
