Challenge
Help answer one of Philosophy's greatest questions: Is a person truly himself if he is subject to change?
for example: are you truly the same person before a meal as after you've finished? if so, are you to be required to pay the tab? how about the food? it too, underwent rapid changes and is certainly not as it was delivered...
Transient Selves
You are your changes, nothing is totally still
The ocean is still the ocean no matter the waves
Without the churning it would be stagnant
Dead, existing in form but not substance
As we would be if unchanged throughout time
Without this ability to move, evolve
We would only ever be our past version
Never our true, actual transient selves
