All I can be is me

"All I can be is me- whoever that is. ”

Bob Dylan

Have you ever wondered who you are? Have you spent your time analyzing and trying to get to know yourself better?

That’s fine, but sometimes it’s better to live without thinking too much and without trying to define yourself. Life is constantly flowing and it's full of uncertainty. There is no exact answer to the question of who we are. Instead of this question, we can ask ourselves how do we want to live our life. Life is a flow. And we are constantly in that flow, adapting to changes, and fighting challenges, to survive. We should not try to "catch" the frozen frame of ourselves and our lives. We need to indulge in experiences and allow life to be changeable. When we learn to do that, new possibilities can open up for us.

We prosper and progress by meeting uncertainty. While we are trying to know ourselves better, in all its complexity, it is good to pay attention to the process of life that is constantly taking place and lasting. Embrace uncertainty allows us to enjoy the constant flow that is all around us. Some people would rather accept their unhappy life than choose an uncertain life but we are all uncertain as well. We don't know how long we will be here. Only one thing is for sure. You are who you are and you can't be someone else. All you can be is you, whoever you are.

You are the one who will decide how many experiences you will allow yourself. You open up new possibilities. You are crossing new limits. You change because everything changes. You're making progress. You fall. You get up again. During all that time, life flows. Make sure it flows the way you want because what happened yesterday has already passed. What is needed now is to free ourselves from burdensome thoughts that are trying to trap us in a space where a good knowledge of ourselves will make us vulnerable because it will prevent us from adapting to new changes that are coming again and again.

I don't care if I did the right thing anymore. All I can be is me. I don't know who I am, but whoever I am, it doesn't matter, as long as my intentions towards myself and the people around me are good.

Thank you very much for reading.
