You feel like you're losing yourself when you stop and look at yourself from 3rd person. Most do it unintentionally, but it's because we're constantly being observed, and we don't have the ability to observe ourselves to closely. One wonders, if one is a part of this pseudo-intellectulist culture uprising in these newer generations. One wonders if one is pretentious, but we know we're all trying to sell ourselves. Life should be a fight for ones own pleasure, but we're constantly trying to please others, and that's not how it should be. From a different perspective one forgets who he is, and has to relearn himself. Life becomes a game of masks, but we will never be our true selves unless we learn to put down the mask and be. We need to be, and not become. Because being is that of in the moment, and becoming is that of a 3rd person nature, that of a different perspective. Because we cannot accurately pinpoint who we are becoming, only who we are being. And that is why we are whoever we are at the moment of everyday. This is why we as humans are so beautiful. We are able to alter ourselves at every moment of everyday to become what we've always wanted to be. To be the person that we transpire.. **To be.
