My Identity

File Location:  My Words/Completion (What we know)\Depth of the Assumptions/My Identity


So who am I
Now by following these things: that there is too much to do in the world, that I must live and  do all I can.  That I must learn everything, and explore, go plaaces where I,ve never been, something new everyday.
Sometimes it feels like I need to hold up an identity, like if people expect me to be a certain way just because I had done certain things before.  Sometimes it feels like I need to stay in a certain spot, because it is my place, because there is no one else that does it, and so this becomes how people identify you. But dont let these things hold you down: what people think about you, the fact that you were born somewhere or been there for so long, your nationality means nothing, and your family are just like any other people, the pattern of everything that makes it seem that it is your fate to stay.
NO, dont let  anything hold you down, you must live.
I am not what my body makes me, I am not the places ive been, I am not the things Ive seen, I am not what other people see in me, I am notwhat other people think I am, I am not what I say I am, I am not what I have done in the past I am not my memory, though I use my memory, I am alive and I will live.
Sometimes it feels like I am someone, like I am a person that is limited to vertain actions, but there is nothing in this Existence that binds you like that, ANYTHING is possible, you dont have to hold an identity because even the fact of your identity is unknown, identity as we know it is an illusion.  If you are going to identify yourself as anything, let it be this, that at first you were not, but now you are alive, and you have some kind of action, some kind of verb some kind of life.  Dont identify yourself as anything else because you really dont know what anything is, you dont know who you are, or what identity is. 
The Only Thing that you can Declare, once again, is that there Is.  And this is how you will live, by declaring the I AM, and this is what makes you.  You may not even be and so you may never know who or what you are, but you do know that there Is.  And with this you say, I have some sort of verb within me, where I was once not and did not perceive any, there is now perception and a Declaration of the I AM.  I dont know if I am, but there Is, and this is What Is.  So I will live in respect to this, I am nothing more than a declaration of the Living, and I will Live according to this Is, that I may truly declare in every possible way I can, that there Is Life. 
This is who I am, I dont know, but there Is, and I have some sort of verb, I have only a Declaration of Life, I dont know if I am, but this is what there Is.  This is who I am, I will not say this as a Truth but as something of lower value than Life: This is who I am, I have life, I am what I live; I live so I am, I am only a declaration of life, a representation and manifestation of Existence and nothing else.
I am now naked, with no one to see me, with no one to judge me or to claim me, I am not a man, nor a woman, I am just a being, made of dust and something powerful that makes me aware.  I am what Existence says that I am.  I have no nationality, I have no identity, I am naked, bare.  I look at myself is this body mine? Did I make it? Do I understand how it works? No, I am not even my body, I am not where I came from, my body was made from the people that conceived me, but I, I am something else, I come from Existence, I come from nothing, I was molded by the I AM.  I am naked, what is my body? What is my works? What are my memories and experiences?  I am none of this, I am not a category, I am not a representation of another illusion, I am not my nationality, I am not my efforts, I am not my past.  I am... me, a child of Existence, powerful and weak, I am what I AM says I am.  As I am naked, I have nothing else, no identity, only that I live.
