Beyond Your Identity
the things you identify with
or (mis)perceive yourself to be
your past
your pain
your story
your race
your age
your body
your gender and orientation
your role as this
your status as that
your (fill in the blank) that matters so much
all of these things
at the deepest level
are not who you actually are
and the more strongly you identify with whatever it is
and get heated and protest for or against it
or heaven forbid
attempt to protect it
(because who would you be without ‘it’, am i right?)
the further you are
from the ultimate truth
hence your need to identify
