when someone is going thru a point in their lives where they dont know who they are, it is called an "identity crisis". but why does that have to be such a crisis? no one ever really knows who they are, like a set definition of themselves. if someone truly knew who they were, they would be boring. the truth is that people are changing all the time and there cant be one word to describe who a person is.
but lets say someone does know and they are a reliable fun person. well what about one day when ur just down and u dont feel like being funny, or one day u just forget to tell someone something, therefore making u unreliable? what u thought was u was just thrown completely off balance, and now u have no sence of who u are. ummhmm!
no one has to really know anything about themselves bc everything changes so quickly that its hard to ever have one second when u stop and know who u are. people can be everything tied up into one bundle, happy, sad, incredible, boring, sulky, lively, everything and anything.
but that doesnt mean u can go crazy bc u have no sence of self. it just means that u dont have to restrict urself to one thing. like take punk people for example. since they branded themselves as punk, they cant be anything else but punk. they always have to wear those punky clothes andlisten to that punk music and be in a punk mood all the time. but what if one day that person just wanted to laugh out loud or wear pink or listen to techno? they cant bc they would be seen as posers. thats why i laugh to myself whenever i see punk people bc theyre trying to be different, but in reality there all the same and are no different than the preppy people trying to fit in down the street.
so the point is dont brand urself as one thing bc itll bite u in the butt the day after. like i said u dont have to go insane u just can be versatile with who u are and if anyone judges u just b like excuse me who are u to tell me who i should or shouldnt be asshole get a life. yepp thatll teach them
