I don’t have
a past. That person of forty years ago,
or fifty years ago is not me. There is
not one single molecule in my body that existed in my avatar. I don’t think the same, I don’t have the same
values, I don’t desire the same things; I see and interact with the world
totally different as an eighty-year-old man.
I am me –
today – that is who I am.
Who was that
guy? He’s not me!
the Ol’Buzzard
