The Self Is Not Fixed, It’s Fluid
“Most people think of the self as something continuous, fixed, and recognizable across time. We talk about “who I am” as if it’s an object that sits inside the body, untouched by change unless we intentionally rearrange it. But the self is far less solid than it appears. It is a collapse of thousands of interpretive patterns, emotional imprints, sensory conclusions, past reactions, learned roles, and inherited narratives, fired so often that the brain treats them as a single thing. What we call “me” is the sum of all those collapses, knitted together by a nervous system that prioritizes predictability over truth.”
