Who am I?
We are many different possibilities.
We each have many possible selves --- like the multi-faceted crystal we hang from a thread in our window.
Like that crystal each facet has the potential to radiate something beautiful as it catches and reflects the sun's rays.
I am no less myself when one facet catches the sun's rays than I am when another does.
Sometimes one facet comes to the forefront because of influence from others around us, like wind in the trees can turn the crystal so different facets are prominent.
There is, however, a deeper Self that isn't subject to the whim of environmental winds and influences. This deeper self is pure good.
While all the reflections are equally beautiful, their source is different --- one comes from the outside of us. It's external like the wind, and is, therefore, not of our deeper self. The other is internal and is steady and stable regardless of external influences.
Who am I? I can be any of a multitude of possibilities. I am all that I ever have been.
Nothing in me ever dies. No part of me ever disappears --- not a single facet.
Whatever I have been, I still am. It simply doesn't catch the sun's rays at a particular time.
Who am I? Whatever I ever have been, I am still. No part of me ever dies. Ever.
