Who Am I?
The title was actually a title of a Jackie Chan film. In the movie, he had amnesia (loss of memory), and didn't remember who he was. As most Jackie Chan movies go, it was entertaining, but not a deep film. I believe I have been on a lifetime journey (so far) to discover who I am. So far, I have found a path to blunder along on, but I have no idea where it will take me. But wherever it goes, I imagine I won't get to the end in my lifetime. And that's probably a good thing. It means I will always have somewwhere to go. As someone once said, it's not the destination that matters, it's the journey. And I can say, it's been quite a journey. I have met many people along the way, as well as seeing many strange, beautiful, and not so beautiful places. Of course, I have learned a little about myself. Some good, some bad, and some I don't know what to make of. Actually, there's a lot of that last category. But without the people I have met and known along the way, my feeling is, that my journey would be pointless. Even though all human experience is dependent upon the individual, and is a very personal thing, we are all connected, regardless of what we believe. And thank God, the Universe, or whatever the h#*! you please, for that. Left completely on my own, I would find my life's journey mind numbingly dull. Besides other people being more interesting, maybe it is through other people, our friends, our family, and even perfect strangers, that we learn about ourselves. Just a thought. So...Who are you?
