You were. You are. You will be.
Nothing endures but change. - Heraclitus
There has never, is no and will never be a set definition for one's self. You were who you were last year, last week, yesterday. You will be who you will be tomorrow, next week and forty years from now. You are who you are today. If you were to gather all the persons that you were, are and will be at any point in your life into one room it would be like a meeting between strangers. You and I are constantly changing. There is no way to truly know who you are as a person when certain experiences define who you are at the present moment. So to spend your days trying to "find yourself" and telling the world you "know who you are" is a bit juvenile. It is possible to know what you like and what you don't but even personal preferences change over time. You will never grasp the very essence of who you are when something today will change the definition of who you are tomorrow. That's life. That's change. So instead of trying to define yourself you should take in as many experiences as possible and forget about "who" you are. The human being cannot and should not allow them self to be defined by one specific thing when complexities allow us to be so much more than what is readily apparent. You are nostalgic memories of days gone past coupled with layers upon layers of undiscovered mysteries still waiting to be experienced by an individual drifting through life as an unexplainable, undefinable you.

What's great about memories is you can always look back for directions when you get lost in life.

"I'm only human."
"Everyone makes mistakes."
"It just...it kinda just happened."
"I gave into my temptation. I'm sorry. I'm only human."
These have all been used as excuses for infidelity. I've heard these words pass through the lips of others time and time again and as the pleas are shot into the air targeting sympathy they only land on deaf ears and I realize just how contradictory the words are.
I'm only human? Is that really a reason to give into temptation? For every human who has cheated I guarantee there are about 100 others who have not. So being human is not an excuse because human does not automatically guarantee that everyone will cheat and possibly would never give into temptation. If anything it makes you the opposite. What's so great about humans is they have the ability to reason. A defining feature in humans is the ability to use logic in certain situations so when you or this other person initiates the first move logic, reason, anything should light up in your mind and tell you this is wrong. Most likely you would know it's wrong but you continue to follow it simply because you are just that tempted. Your inability to pull away from the situation shows that you are indeed not human. You did not reason or use any logic in the situation. It's a simple equation really: you+infidelity=loss of relationship. So the fact that you continued to pursue it simply because your temptation was already piqued shows you are incapable of reasoning therefore your mind is almost computerized. Once a situation arises you do not think of other options but rather act on an automatic command like a computer.
So in a way you are not "only human." Instead you are an emotionless, non-thinking computer who didn't know what you were losing when you decided to throw everything into the trash.
