Someone said a bloggers “concept of [oneself] is derived from a perceived membership in a particular blog through the deeper connectivity of the dialog”. If that is the case then my concept of self has been fragmented as long as I can imagine. Over the years I have gone through the phases of identifying self/voice, keeping self under wraps and exposing to the few I trust, questioning that practice and finally giving up in my attempts to ‘define’ myself but yet keeping it true to me at this moment in time. Unlike in the postmodern worldview, transience, flux, and fragmentation describe the growing sense of how things really are. I do think there is me in the fragmented view of myself and therefore I am merging “all” of my various attempts into ‘one’ blog/space/expression.
I take this leap knowing that my attempts to resist/seek definition will be met with some definitions whether I like it or not.
Thank you for stopping by.
