Identity

I hope - maybe wish at most, to write daily. After all the 2nd test this term is an essay

Yesterday on Facebook I was planning to write this as a note - but it came out disorganized and unplanned. So - this comes back here.

Identity -

5.
the sense of self, providing sameness and continuity in personality over time and sometimes disturbed in mental illnesses, as schizophrenia.

So... Isn't identity supposed to be oneself own?

However I keep an identity until it feels like a mask. It almost feels like a liability.

Don't think I'm schizophrenic for I am not. See the others - see them. Gui An's identity is himself - it is he himself. Gerald has no identity to keep at all (although there are certain protocol of human interaction, of course). But I need to create an identity not to fall into a cliche, a black hole. Gerald and Gui An has a perfect, unique identity and Gerald one that none fits at all.

I keep a mask - as I said. I try to differentiate myself. But is there a rational use at all?

Oh no. I don't wish to be unclear of my identity. I can't go on - after all why lose your identity by questioning it?
