A person changes his environment so many times that he forgets what his original environment was.<br \/>\nNow what if instead of his environment a person changes his character. An example would be a spy. A spy has to live with so many identities. How does he live his<br \/>\noff-duty life. Can he forget his fake identities and live his original identity. But again spy knows what his original identity is. He is very motivated towards<br \/>\nhis original identity and hence very well knows the purpose and timeline of his fake identities.<br \/>\nWhat if a person is not so motivated towards his original identity. What if the change of identity is not a sudden change but a gradual change owing to circumstances.<br \/>\nLet me put my example. I had to frequently change my schooling environment owing to my dad&#8217;s transfers. As a person, I am very social and hence I need people<br \/>\naround me. This meant that I had to regularly adapt myself to the environment of the school to make new friends. With this, I did have many good friends in each school I studied.<br \/>\nBut now, the question is did I change myself so much that I dont know what my original identity was. Also should I call my present character as fake as it<br \/>\nprobably is no where near to my original identity.<br \/>\nIf I look at it optimistically, I can say that my identity has not changed but only evolved and it is a necessary and compulsory step in every human&#8217;s life.<br \/>\nSimilar to a diamond, which in a mine is black but when it changes its environment from a mine to a wedding ring, it has evolved so much that it changes from being<br \/>\nblack to a nice, sparkling stone.<br \/>\nBut I feel that is a bad example. Daimond always had that sparkling nature and it just required someone to cut it and shape it to show that sparkling nature.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The concept presented in Inception is a very powerful one.
