These questions difficult are to answer for me and my bipolar mind: “Why am I like I am?” “What do I want?” and “If there was one thing you could change, what would it be?”.
I want people to ask themselves those questions. Then ask their shoes; their hands and their pens. I want them to split their old selves and their new selves; and ask them too. I want them to make their old selves and new selves talk to each other and play together. Then they may have more of an insight of why I am like I am.
The “If there was one thing that you could change, what would it be?” question is impossible for me to answer; because if you change one thing; you change everything.
And another angle of “Why I am like I am?”. I can only be defined by the edges and grasp of another and their mind(s). To put it in short, I am like I am because you are like you. (The *You* is possibly the world; the one who asks the question(s); or even my own thoughts of myself, but that’s a rabbit whole I won’t go down today :p)
For me, I sometimes find it hard to see how I am different from anyone else, so I find it very strange if people ask why I am like I am. That would mean they don’t know why they are like they are.
I guess I just see myself as human, the same as anyone else. So confrontation, even in the form of a simple question that I deem the answer to be obvious, can cause quite an upset in my immediate mood and perception of the situation.
I hope that has helped clear up why these questions are difficult to answer for me and my bipolar mind.
