sounds like the message is that i have a hard time remaining myself, i get caught up in trying to be what the guy wants. sure sounds like an identity issue. one of my life themes is the identity crisis.
i have a hard time distinguishing myself from others -- in a coherent way. i pretty much act and react on a case by case basis, i'm fond of contextual significance and have difficulty respecting dictated rules, laws, conditions. how can you say what is or is not 'ok' before it even happens? i'm having visions of myself writing a radical political manifesto -- writing something that looks at why you're doing X instead of being concerned with what you're doing, what X is.
might that be a more sophisticated society, one that is concerned with intention, not just action?
i don't really care to have a pre-ordained identity plan in my life, but society is really demanding it nonetheless.
