    Who says you have to be born on earth though? You could begin anywhere.

    Yes, like that.

    I don't believe the bible is infallible, so you're going to have to try something else.
    I struggle with motivation, apathy and sticking to goals.

    Then the question: if I did begin somewhere else, and grew up in a different body as an asexually-reproducing quadruped with a different language and life experiences, would that be me? I say it wouldn't be me.

    So are you going with, "What are the chances this planet of humans started out in Andromeda instead of in the Milky Way?"

    I was first born on a little planet in alpha centauri. I have been making my way across the universe ever since and finally ended up here. I have been using earth as my playground for a couple 100,000 years since.

    And yes I get that your op was meant to be metaphysical. I didn't get the transcendental feel from it like I do with other writings of a similar nature but that is a subjective thing anyway. That is what I meant by concrete. I can see it had the potential to go there, at the end.

    “My typology is . . . not in any sense to stick labels on people at first sight. It is not a physiognomy and not an anthropological system, but a critical psychology dealing with the organization and delimitation of psychic processes that can be shown to be typical.”​ —C.G. Jung
