Yes-a shifting frontier.
But a bedrock of habit or preferred pathways I would add on.Would you exclude that.

This "system" would argue not. Those who actually attempt exercises in self observation are usually surprised by the extent of the dissonance.
That which we would see as "constant" is deemed to be "false personality" which masks "true essence". (Note here the etymology of "personality" from the greek persona - the mask worn by actors).
From my own persective such a system may overstate its case, but I certainly think that "the self" is much less cohesive than most people believe. It certainly has a social dimension as implied by coberst above, and it may be the case that each of us could occupy any position along the dimension "saint to murderer" according to prevailing conditions.
Yeah I know fresco.But big tits.What do you think about big tits?
