You may have been asked, who do you think you are? When was the last time someone asked you who you think you were? This implies you used to be someone else and now, you feel like someone different. Has this happened to you? Can you place this feeling?
You may imagine you were Marco Polo or some other famous person in a past life. This may or may not be true. What is true is that you are energy that is constantly transforming and influencing your surroundings. Who you used to be and the choices you made influence who you are right now. What do you make of all the recent changes?
If you are discerning a new kind of awareness, then this is a sign that you sense life differently. As you stop comparing, it will no longer matter how you used to feel, the choices you used to make because they do not define who you are and what you are becoming. You are already doing that without even thinking. It is apparent in your increasing mindfulness.
