We can gain many things from mindfulness. As
stated by Uwe Herwig in “Me, Myself and I”, “our self-image is a product of our
brain.” By being aware of ourselves, we can become what we truly want to be. In
today’s society, people are encouraged to lead themselves to success, instead
of following others. In order to do that they must be aware of what they want
and how to get there and what it will make them become. We may have to act
different to get where we want, we still need be true to ourselves sometimes.
Although Finkelstein said in “Identity”, “there is no need for a permanent
sense of identity.” He also claimed, “to
live without having to wear a mask, is the only way to achieve self-awareness.”
This means that there is nothing to be ashamed of if we lose our sense of
identity, as long as we fight against the obstacles, and uncover the veil, we
can find ourselves again.

ReplyDeleteI see what you did there! :D Nah, i really love this part, taking the two concepts that the author put in his paper and placing them right next to one another. It makes a more vivid and raw point out of his article
