It is true that we all have an identity and it is true that it has been with us since birth, It is also true to say that we as certain and specific individuals have chosen to ignore disregard and change our supposed identity in exchange for one that is perhaps only coherent to them and their thoughts It's a “ chicken and egg” argument, what came first , the body or the mind? Did consciousness slowly evolve as it was gently dipped or violently thrown into an abandoned society, or was a new-born childs greatest gift an unseen preordained fabrication of it's own existence The world around, this is the mind at large So how can you be judge and jury When you're fostering an identity Of which you are not in charge To be what you desire Is the answer for one But to be what you are Is the answer for all And if it is a battle Between body and mind you are torn Then the simplicity Is not an irrational irregularity It's the power of reason to understand That the mind of constraints came after The physical was born It is the eyes that see And a mind that you follow blindly Knowledge at birth Wisdom with age
