People put so much effort into identity, trying to fit in or be different. I've tried some of both, of course. I've tried to get along with people I don't even like, and I've tried to avoid fitting one cliche or another even though there's nothing new under the sun. Both are obviously artificial and I'd prefer to just be myself. And I suppose it's an important step toward being myself that I admit I don't yet know who I am.
