Talking about identity.
Our identity alters and evolves over time, and the transition periods make us feel vulnerable. We wonder if we are solid at all, once we’re no longer a full time parent, teacher, programmer or whatever. We are hopeful that a new identity will evolve, but a little fearful there isn’t one for us. We probably should allow ourselves time for this. There is a danger we might be tempted to rush to an identity which doesn’t actually align with our core values, but which is just attractive for its strength or beauty in the eyes of the world.
Is there a concept of easy or difficult identities?
