Cultures are partly about geography but mostly about history and the passages of time, shifting sands. Impermanence underlies all this self justification and clinging to any belief that fits. I will put myself into this box. Initially, it’s comfortable but, given time, may become a prison.
And what of this transient self: I, me, mine are labels such as actor, body and possession, mostly fiction. I am the stories I tell myself. Even this is a story. Gone in an instant of the irrecoverable present.
