Stop pretending you’re the same person you were a decade ago just because you’re wearing the same bone structure. We’re all just ghosts in a biological machine that replaces its parts every few years, yet we still obsess over "finding ourselves." Finding what? The system loves it when you’re obsessed with a fixed identity because a fixed target is easier to control. If every plank of your ship is replaced, is it even the same vessel? Identity is a prison built by people who are afraid of change. Break the lock. You owe nothing to the person you used to be. Stop being a monument to your own past and start being the fire. 🎸🔥
