Vichu, my comment went into spam or moderation because of some word.
My identity:
‘me’. It is an amalgamation of a lot of things good , bad and ugly, but when one understands that one can be a lot of things and not just ‘one’ something, there you go- one identifies with oneself.
I can sometimes go iane, bear with me if you don’t get my point:)
I get what you mean
And I agree

Its hard to peg identities in one word anyway. I hate to have regional, caste and religious identities, but now that I am in a new city, such identities stick.
Ha , I too hate it , but then when we meet new people all those things take front stage

Mine is always to be a human

Waah! Waah! What’s with the identity tracking post eh?
I wanna say that I’m little bit of a combination of some identities. Doesn’t mean I’ve a disorder or anything
All of us have varied identities , will be writing about it soon
– vishesh
I would say I’m a simple being
we all are
-vishesh
Very interesting
If all us thought like you – we would not have any conflicts in the world
My identity – I so wish I knew!
Ha but no one can be me
And well I don’t really get along with people
