Who am i?
Pretty deep question there, isnt it? Which me do you want me to define? The mother, the friend, the daughter, the worker? The sad me, the happy me, the tired me? Cynical, optimistic, believer in social justice, full of hope and despair for humanity? So many versions of me, how to define myself?
People are a bit like Palimpsests. Gore Vidal called the autobiography of his early years Palimpsest for that reason. One of my favourite quotes* is from Archimedes, so it is fitting he has the world’s oldest surviving Palimpsest.
(And astute purveyors of this site may realise that all the titles of posts are what I regard as pertinent quotes, also).
I guess if you want to know who I am, you will have to take the sum total of my blog entries, read them, and realise you will never REALLY know me. You will know aspects of me, but that is all any of us have. Long acquaintance helps, of course, but then, its all about time, anyway:)
* The quote? Oh, yes, here it is:
Where the needs of the world intersect with your passions, there lies your calling.
On a terribly mundane level, here is my Public Key (GPG).
