I think that the times when I am most being who I think I am to be are times when I'm not thinking about who I am to be. Self-consciousness and "Self-realization" are not goals for me. Too often they get in the way. There are simple acts like you, Amos, and maeve refer to that flow so naturally out of who I am that without consciously thinking about it, I am most "being me." It's a good feeling. It's not something I can strive for. Or even try to create. It's a side effect of living right.
