Our identities make things possible or impossible. They determine whether our ability to function is visible or invisible.
Our identities reflect our programming—whether conscious or unconscious. They are the reason our bodies become sick and tired, or gradually healthier.
Our identities define our fears and triggers, our confidence and courage. They shape whether we see ourselves as someone capable of sculpting identity itself.
Our identities determine whether we have the inner resources to hunt down our delusions. They make it possible to suffer—and also to grow our energetic capacity.
They dictate whether we take our emotions personally and feel offended by them, or whether we are capable of seeing the thoughts which are parasitic upon our Being—so that we might change our minds.
If we do not take the time to adjust and consciously create useful, efficient identities, we are surrendered to the default identities impressed upon us by our culture—and this is always a recipe for inner conflict.
