Is the person you really are (or the person you think you are) the same one people around you think you are?
Who am I? One day, a lot of people may have wondered about the person they are to answer to this question on Orkut, or because some situation made them to analyze the person they have been or they were.
There is not an exact answer to this question, but we can come close to an acceptable theory. It would be better developed by one who knows about oneself very well. What one likes and dislikes and knows how to recognize one’s own virtues and shortcomings.
And even if we had created a very true theory about the ones we are, what would be its value? Strangers create concepts about us right before trying to know us deeply. Only time and living together are able to show to them they might have been mistaken. Who is the one that have never met somebody and thought this one was unpleasant and then changed one’s mind when time showed to this person that that one was not the one you thought one were, or the opposite?
And our truer theory may not match with the people around us theory. One may think you are more or less intelligent you really are, funnier or less funny, more or less problematic, etc.
So, theories we create about who we are not only have a short validity (once we are always changing for better or worse) as they also may vary from one person to another. And so, who we are? Are we a different one from each one point of view? Or are we inside a kind of kaleidoscope, the same person saw just by different angles?
