You’re a Catholic or an atheist,
a leftist or a rightist
black or white,
upper class or outcast…
You have an identity.
You are someone.
You belong to a group,
a gang, a community.
You’re a Zulu, a gypsy or a Croatian,
a Sunni or a Shia Muslim, a Brahmin,
an intellectual snob or a spiritualist.
It’s obviously very important to have an identity.
However, you forget your identity during large parts of the day.
You forget who you are because you’re engrossed in work,
a sunset, playing with kids or whatever.
Identity and no-identity are two aspects of life.
