I must admit I was somewhat daunted by the task of writing "about me," which, given the fact I have neurotically examined every minutiae of my life since the age of 10, came as quite a surprise. Like most of us spiritual entities currently having a human experience, my Self is a complex web of intersecting and often competing constructed identities: social, cultural, racial, gendered, psycho-spiritual, academic, socioeconomic, political, personal, and professional, whose motivations and responses vary depending upon context and company. Although I have long since mastered the art of identity shifting to ensure self preservation, I have only recently begun to consciously observe the subtle rise and fall of different aspects of my Self. So, here I am, standing in the margins observing the different aspects of my Self jockey for primacy and the privilege of subjectivity.
