answer:” I am therefore also not my personality, for it, too, does not exist as one ‘thing’.” You seem to want to be able to define yourself by finding one key thing that can be said to be your whole. That makes no sense to me whatsoever. Why can you not be made up of a collection of all the things you mention, and more beyond? I am not only my personality, my physical self, my soul, my thoughts, my emotions, my beliefs, my ideals and morals, a person who reacts based on previous experiences, a person who reacts based on no previous experience… I am also in some part what others think I am, for to those people that is who I am. I am complex. And so are you.
