Who am I?

Who are you?
A simple question but with so many meanings and answers. Most likely you'll answer with your name by which you are know or referred to. Your name only implies that you are a human with a reference.

You could think deeply and give a better and more explicit answer... but for that, I can give you a bit of help. I'll help you by asking, what are you?

You are a human being or an individual of the human society. You must go deeper then that, tell me, what is a human?

Again, multiple answers, again a chain of aspects... to really answer a question to it's full you must know the actual universal truth - everything about everything. There is no human to know it, and there will never be someone capable to know everything. He who knows the answer to every question can only be seen as a god in my book, and even he might not know everything. But we are getting away from the subject and that is "who are you, really?"

It seems I used the pick of my existence to find out who I am, what is my purpose, what is the meaning of all this, how it happened... (the years around the age of 25 are considered as pick age - where everything you are doing can be referred to this age, for example the majority of greatest discoveries took place at this age or were sketched/formulated at this time).

So I asked my self just what I'm asking you here. I simply concluded that I am separated entities which are symbiotic (one can not exist without the other): my mind and my body. Let's start with the body, it's simpler, better studied and thus known to us:

A spermatozoon meets an ovule: they mix up their genes and then start dividing creating cells... cell after cell until you are created. How is this happening is absolutely amazing. A metaphor of the process would be: we have the DNA (right image) which is the architect, we have the RNA (the image a bit more down) which are the engineers and we have the common workers (cells/enzymes...) which are constructing as it is planned.

So, these are the brief facts of there is to it:
DNA is a nucleic acid that contains the genetic instructions used in the development and functioning of all known living organisms. The Human DNA has 23 pairs of chromosomes. Chromosome number 1, is approximately 220 million base pairs long. There are around 3 billion base pairs in a human DNA. A gene is a portion of DNA, a segment of nucleic acid that, taken as a whole, specifies a trait. Humans have more then 20.000 genes. RNA is transcribed from DNA by enzymes and is generally further processed by other enzymes. RNA is central to the synthesis of proteins.
Going in more details about this subject is complete insanity unless you found your "other" vocation.

The DNA dictates how we are created... it is your sketch... it is YOU. Out of this plan, between 50 and 100 trillion cells are created and they are working to provide your body the overall functionality. 50 trillion? that's 50.000.000.000.000 individual cells... that's allot, don't you think? It's a pretty good freaking plan...

Looking at this number I can conclude that this is not a building anymore... where 50 trillion workers are needed to MAINTAIN a structure I would call this a society. I am a society. The society of my cells... it can also be compared with an ecosystem, but unlike a society of beings, the ecosystem is self sustaining. On the other hand, the society... NEEDS RESOURCES. Lots of them... and here is where the second distinct half of me comes in.
My mind is ruling the society. My mind is the elite of cells with the purpose of coordinating the direction the society is going. My mind has complete control of what to do and it is entrusted with this great power for the hole purpose of taking the correct decisions.

If I tell you that the mind can be compared with an extra efficient computer would you believe me? Yes you would... the mind is a big place place itself also. Stop looking at your mind as your brain, the brain is a mixture between the 50 trillion workers and the elite... it's the place where all the information is gathered, stored, selected and they are used to take the decisions. The brain is only interacting with your mind, it is the hardware for the software. Your mind however, is pure software... countless processes and programs are running to provide the big functionality of the operating system.

Your mind is god damn software. How was your software being created to be what it is? Simple, within the DNA are encoded also the few minimum routines needed to make it work to it's minimum. You have a program for gathering information, one for storing it, you have a program for selecting this information and associating it with other information, you have a program which is collecting data from the society and redirecting the information to the control program. The control program (which we refer to as our mind) is the one taking an info, looking at it, saying: we need food, search in the database for information about food, finds out what it is, how is provided, how to obtain it and deliver it where it suppose to go. It's that simple and yet more complex then that...

The minimum operating level which is constructed (you are baby in this stage) is mostly oriented around need fulfillment, storing information, associating information. When we grow in age we start creating some routines, those sets of rules and algorithms which solve problems easier. In real life we are learning things, more and more until of character is defined. The character of a human is the apogee of the software... now most of the algorithms are created and fully functional... any decision can be easily pulled and executed.

We will continue with a deeper insight about this in an other post, for now we will get back on the subject of "who am I".

I am a society. The organization of this society is totalitarianism. The society is driven and directed by an totalitarian elite which was entrusted with this power for the common good of the society. As every other society, mine is also doomed to die as more and more individuals begin to be tired of this regime and refuse to do their task. There are more then 6 billion of this types of societies on planet Earth at this moment. It takes an average of 70 cycles for the Earth to go around the Sun until one of these societies to collapse in anarchy (death of aging) unless destroyed by other events. In order to maintain this knowledge until the perfect UTOPIAN society (the perfect human) is created colonization must be done (procreation) by combining our freaking awesome plan with an other freaking awesome plan to make (hopefully) an even more freaking awesome plan.

Freaking awesome, right? I am a society...

If you want to know how we evolved to be like this: at a certain point single cell organism discovered in their evolution a new way to survive and started cooperating with other cells. By growing larger and larger, this organisms also evolved a new future, and thus being coordination. Little by little the coordination tasks was given to a specific types of cells and the outcome was an organism - a society of cells which learned to cooperate. It's all simple evolution... the best result of this evolution on earth is seen on humans, which their coordinator system took the shape of individualism, but at a much grater scale. The humans have imposed themselves on earth by applying the same model of coordination, by creating a society. As everything in evolution, societies mutates and learns to thrive in their survival or IT DIES. It's all natural selection...

A society allows its individual members to achieve individual needs or wishes that they could not fulfill separately by themselves. A society is an economic, social or industrial infrastructure, made up of a varied multitude of individuals. Eusociality - the highest level of social organization in a hierarchical classification. The most familiar examples are ants, bees, and wasps as well as termites - all with reproductive queens and more or less sterile workers and/or soldiers.

Anarchy - absence or non-recognition of authority and order in any given sphere.

Cancer is a class of diseases in which a group of cells display uncontrolled growth (division beyond the normal limits), invasion (intrusion on and destruction of adjacent tissues), and sometimes metastasis. Cancer can kill it's host and by doing so it kills it's sustaining environment leading of course to it's own death.

Why is it that we die of old age? I have a theory about that. The theory is that "our plan", our DNA is only developed as long enough to assure the continuity of the plan. Progression in perfecting the plan is a slow process. So... once the final stages of the plan were achieved (our full maturity) our mind takes over as a full coordinator - the plan is discarded as it is of no use to us anymore. Without any full plan to be followed... we are roaming free to contribute to the other plan. The other can only be the plan for our society... we are working on that one. With or without our awareness... this is what we are doing. Our biology encoded in our DNA dictates NOW how the next society will look like. There was a time when the DNA was mutating chaotically in order to produce a good plan. It was a time of uncertainty and chaos.

For thousands of years the humans have lived in chaos and now we are at the point where a plan is taking a shy form. It is certainly not the best plan, but there's an eternity at our disposal to improve this plan. There's only one barrier standing in our way and that is Earth itself. Earth is our host and it will remain so until we manage to spread there in the infinity. There are 2 paths for our future - either we pull it of, either we don't... Either we manage to evolve our society and procreate it and thus survive, either we don't and we die with our host just like cancer... Again said, it's THAT simple... We other do it, we either don't!!!
The Earth and the Sun have been "around here" for quite some time, but they'll not be here forever... nothing keeps it's form forever, nothing last forever... everything is transforming; transforming into something more complex or into something less. Either evolve, either disappear!

I'm an other post I will explain the meaning of life as I concluded. The conclusion is scary and ruthless. There is no meaning... everything is pure chaos... evolution and devolution... If we are to make a purpose to life... let it be evolution... let's evolve! Lets make our own plan, lets be free... Lets free ourselves from the death that awaits us on Earth. Earth's particles came from somewhere and evolved here. Now Earth exists. You evolved and you are here. You exist. The Sun is here and "soon" will start to devolve and die. He'll not get the chance actually... by that time our galaxy will collide with an other galaxy and everything will be destroyed... it's not a catastrophe... it happened before and it will happen again, over and over. It's a catastrophe if we're still here, watching it too close... Have you ever seen a nuclear blast? Check the Tzar Bomb! It's a terrifying beauty... watch from far away is certainly a beauty, watch it too close and you will not like it a bit.

Everybody asks himself at a certain point in our life: who am I? where am I? what's the purpose of all this? what is my purpose in all this?

Finding your answer is crucial to you. Only after you find your answers you are able to accomplish something in your life. Do something with your life. You exist nowt and you are in control of your society. Lead your society, be a good leader or a bad leader... whatever is the puzzle or the question, the answer will always have a 50% chance to be a good one. Either yes, either no. Either you do something, either you don't. Either you survive, either you die. Either you contribute to greatness, either you don't. You can prioritize what's more important, or you can just see where it leads. You can mutate your algorithms that define your character or you can be what you are just now. You can choose to be a better person or you can choose not to. You can evolve or you can devolve. Everything is your choice... this is your free will. Choose!

If you believe in a God, find out what he really want's you to do and start doing it (or you can do the opposite)! If you don't believe in a God then setup your own goals and follow them. No matter the scenario, in the end, our only enemy is ourselves. There's nothing else to fear but fear itself. Study it, process it, accept it and do something about it! We can choose to build the perfect society or we can choose to die here on Earth. We can become greatness or we can become cancer!!! The options for the ending result will always be 50%. Live or die is ours.

Who am I?
I am a human. I am the greatest result of evolution on Earth. I am a complex society and I am also the leader of this society. I am the chooser and the provider: I choose careers, family and friends; I choose altruism over selfishness and I choose selfishness when needed; I chose to contribute and I choose to consume; I choose good over wrong; I choose life over death; I choose as long as I have a choice and I am ONLY what I choose to be.

Do you know who you are? Who are you?
