Who am I?
Am I who I think I am?
Or
Am I, who you think I am?
Answers lurch at breakneck speed
Thoughts saunter along
“Slow down, speed up,
Stick to one side,” I plead
Perceptions, contentions
Run parallel, diverge
A new question tags on
Will the lines ever merge?
Merging would be joy
Or compromise?
Is it even a possibility?
Or a mere fallacy?

the answer to this seemingly small question is indeed unending and as complicated as the question itself.we do assume different identities at different times as we play various roles during our lifetime.
Truly said, Uma. But, different roles do not make us different individuals. The basic question still remains- Am I who I think I am or am I who you think I am?
The crux of the matter perhaps is perception. Someone perceiving you differently than who you perceive yourself as. Why does this happen?
Wish I had the answer? :-)

This is a tough one. We are all wired differently and thereby perceive people, situations, behaviors, etc differently.
For your own good- you are eventually who you think you are.
