What do you think is the most stable place to root your identity? Hobbies? Family? History? Philosophy? Friends? How do you define yourself to yourself? (slrpnk.net)

Patchwork of Theseus.

My identity is not something uniform or stable; it's a collection of small things, combined together, that go from "my condition as a human being" to "what I ate this morning". Sometimes one of those bits of identity falls off, as if a ragged piece of cloth unsewed itself from the patchwork; sometimes a new bit pops up, as if filling a hole. But it's always changing.
