Sometimes, yes, I can see the stories my ego creates around my identity. But detaching myself from those stories is difficult, because many times I forget to look at the insecurity hidden behind them.

Kanishka, notice what happened in that very sentence. You saw the stories, and you saw that you forget to look at the insecurity. But who is keeping that second score, the forgetting? That's the same identity-keeper, just promoted to supervisor, now failing at supervision instead of at the original task. The water doesn't stop being water just because you've learned to name it as water while still staring in. Seeing the pattern once doesn't retire the one who needs to keep proving he saw it.
