RE: Who am I? A philosophical question for the scientifically-minded

in #philosophy7 years ago (edited)

Who are you? Such question. Sometime we get it all twisted while trying to answer this question.
Sometimes back, a friend was walking into a Air-force base, he was alerted to halt. He was terrified already, then he was asked, ‘who are you’. My guy said ‘I’m nobody.’

When he relayed his experience to me I wondered why he could not say anything, why will you say you’re nobody? Then I thought to ask myself........ I’m still asking though.

This sometimes is because they don’t know what to describe themselves as. Or the fear of not marching up to what people think you are. That’s paying attention to people rather than oneself.
