Its' layers need to be burned away until only our unborn self and what is true about us continues. The question: "Who am I?" is too often based on destinations experienced and our road kill. For most, who we are, is defined by the rear view mirror, not in a faith in what does exist within us. The only way out if we see ourselves "in," is forward. And so let's embrace both that which we define as good and bad, let's take the whole experience of then and now, and emerge wiser, purer, firmer and simpler for ourselves and each other.
