    As I age & lose more and more of my earlier ways of being, I, too, often ask “But without _____ [fill in the blank] who am I?” Thank you, Jude, for your wise answer.

    I think I agree with Marti today…
    Somewhere inside of ourselves, we are alway that authentic self, along with the cumulative selves that have joined up over our lifespans.
    I have asked this question of yours at traumatic events in my life (unwanted job shifts, marriage ending…), but thankfully I’ve not thought to ask it in a very long time.
