If every cell in the temple of your skin eventually turns to dust and replaces itself, who is the "you" that remembers the childhood dream? We are ships sailing through an ocean of time, swapping out every plank until nothing original remains—yet we still claim the same name. Perhaps the self is just a persistent melody played on a succession of different instruments. Are we the music, or are we the silence between the notes that never changes? The mirror is a liar that shows a constant image while the essence is a shifting constellation of light and shadow. ✨
