Alex Gets It!!!

Here's what Alex said,

"I don't get your claim, it doesn't seem to make any sense.

You've broken it down so much that you got to the basic fundamentals of what literally every single being on this earth is--the ability to choose. If that's the case, then we're all separate, individual entities, just like we are here, but at the same time, we're all the exact same thing, we're all identical to one another at the basic core, and that to me doesn't seem very much like complete independence from what everyone else is.

By trying to define what makes us individuals, unique individual people, you stripped everyone of what MAKES unique, our thoughts, choices, etc. and broke it down the bare essentials of what literally EVERY person it.

Are you trying to say that deep down, if someone asks "who are you" we should answer "just like you"?"

He's exactly right. And that's what I love about this paradigm! We are all exactly the same. No one is placed above another. What separates us isn't some uncontrollable aspect of us. Rather what separates us is the choices we have made and the lives we have chosen to live. Though that can change in the blink of an eye since we are not defined by our choices.

You are not inherently better than anyone else. On the flip side, you are not inherently worse. We are all equal. The basic core of us is a blank slate, and that's the amazing thing. We can control the lives we live.

If were weren't all inherently the same, if there was something that made us fundamentally different (creation) then that would limit the lives we could live. But since all of us are the ability to choose, never altering, never created, never ending, we can choose exactly how we want to express ourselves.

There is a difference between defining ourselves and expressing ourselves. Defining is unalterable, you can't change it. Expression can change with each passing moment. We can decide how we interact with people, we decided how we want people to perceive us. If we were created or had inherent differences that wouldn't be possible. As of now, because we have no creation and we started as a blank slate we have no baggage to consider, we can change at any given moment, and the only one in control of ourselves is ourselves.

This means we have the potential to do anything.

I'm glad you understand, Alex.
