I__e always been a slow learner in some areas of my life.mostly the areas known as myself. Or maybe I should say __elves.__ecause the fact is, I__e never, even as a child, felt I__ only one self, only one person. I__e always felt I__ quite a few more than one. For example, there__ my jokey self, there__ my morose and fed-up self,there__ my lewd and disgusting self. There__ my clever-clogs self, and my fading-violet-who-cant-make-up-her-mind-about-anything self. There__ my untidy-clothes-everywhere-all-over-my-room self, and my manically tidy self when I want my room to be minimalist and Zen to the nth degree. There__ my confidant, arrogant self and my polite and reasonable and good listener self. There__ my self-righteous self and my wickedly bad self, my flaky self and my bsentimental self. There are selfs I like and selfs I don__ like.there__ my little-girl selfnwhonlikes to play silly games and there__ my old-woman self when I__ quite sure I__ eighty and edging towards geriatric.The self I show in action at any moment depends on where I am, who I__ with, the circumstances of the situation and the mood I__ in.
