continuity

Human nature, or "Self nature" is constantly in a process of change as it adapts to the circumstance of the time. What used to be no longer remains, while new modes of being emerge. The Self clings to those influential moments in history, to find continuity in its own identity. But specific moments of shattering change from past to present makes "continuity of identity" to be nothing more than mere words and phrases. Yet, there remains in the conscious mind, the essence of the Self that persists through all the changes. We remain the same Self, the same Self that declares "I" that transcends time.
