YOU CAN ONLY EVER BE YOURSELF

Added on January 24, 2018 by Jason Lam.

There’s no finding out who you are. There’s only letting yourself be who you already are. 

I came to this idea with my experiments working under different names. I think I'm just lonely. Barely Evolved Apes. JLam. Whatever it is. I’m still me. I’m still Jason Lam. And nothing’s going to change that. If anything, the different names only help me stay organized. Like how you keep clothes in the closet and eating utensils in the kitchen drawers. It’s all part of the same house. And it’s best not to neglect the house, as it’s the foundation that holds all the separate rooms together. As much as you change and evolve, you can never abandon your home. You’re really just creating a new room or a bigger room in the same house. You can never run too far, and even if you think you do, often you’ve only run back to the beginning.
