What is this?

In the world of everchanging thoughts and expressions, everchanging rights and wrongs, I have always tried to find the answer to the age old philosophical question, who am I?

This piece is not meant to give information or steer you to think in a particular way. It is for you to maybe connect to this small piece of text and reflect for yourself.

The way we view people often helps us define who we are, but what characters can you say are innately yours?... In some way we attribute a lot of character to our experiences. Picking up subtle ques from your favorite TV show (Noice) to a line from a movie that hit you in your feels. We have found ways to talk and speak and yet when it comes to expressing our innermost thoughts and desires, we are held back.

We speak a lot through shared posts and screenshots but no longer much in voice. A simple phone call, let alone a conversation is dubbed to be a nuisance. The intricate details of a conversations are expressed in the wonderfully detailed auditory experience, that is the voice. To visualize the person saying the words, seeing the facial ticks and expressions of contempt, fear or happiness.

I like to converse with people (maybe a bit too much) but with the recent pandemic and sudden explosion of online life, I have found myself at a cross roads. Do I adapt to the everchanging nature of conversations or do I stay steadfast in my need for real life social interaction? (A question I ponder about to this day). There is a bit of fun in the written text that is innately pointless (such as this). A written experiment to understand the human perception. Did you enjoy this piece of text? A textual experience that arose from reading a new blog, Design for Mankind, written by Erin. She has a wonderful way with words and this is the immediate response that came to my head.

For a while I will now be following this pattern, reading blogs written by wonderfully talented people across the globe and immediately write a short textual experience of my post reading feelings.
