I am not sure that I exist, actually. I am all the writers that I have read,
all the people that I have met, all the women that I have loved; all the cities
I have visited.~ Jorge Luis BorgesI stumbled upon this Borges quote today in a
social media post from Jessica Flack and started to wonder if one could say
that each of us is a small creative masterpiece since building up a personality
is a creative process. Our personality is created from all the people we have
met, all the lessons we have been taught, all the words and ideas we have heard
from others. From all these impressions we have selected bits and pieces of
behavior that work for us. Just as our subjective experience is formed by the
slice of the world we have experienced, our individual personality is formed by
the particular actions we repeatedly do. Therefore the unique path which we
choose to walk in this world is forming our personality just as much as the
unique slice of the world which we perceive is molding our subjective
experience. Would you
