Going through the notions.
How you got to where you are (1 of at least a billion options).
Here’s a flight of steps explaining how we might have become, reinvented, denied, started, abandoned, or decided who we are. Some people do this every afternoon; some do it over a lifetime. Not everyone’s flights of steps are equal in steepness.
Yes, yes! Brains are iterative, always in motion, and connected in networks (internally and externally). We can't help but think like this -- new bits emerging from the intersection/interaction of existing bits. And I so appreciate that you included the influence of others, since other people and our environments contribute to those iterative changes as well. I love how you capture these insights so simply and directly.
