Man[goes] to One's Personality

 One of the most confusing questions this past week was the question of whether Oedipus has a complex character. 

We know that Oedipus was not one of royal upbringing beforehand. As such, he did not have the developed characteristics that are often reared in princes/princesses. This means that he had to have learned these characters after his appointment or rather he had to learn the arrangement of a wise and noble facade. The latter seems likely, since Oedipus is a smart man and he would like to hold on to his power.

This facade would be called a personality would it not? 

The word personality is derived from the Latin word for mask. As such, personalities are just masks? So, "real" people do not have personalities, the ones that show their "real" self. Or is it not possible for one to show their "real" face. Is it such that human thought is not able to be well-expressed enough to not have a mask, that is a personality. Is it impossible to live without a personality? Is it impossible to live without a mask? 

Of course, sometimes it is almost impossible for one to reveal their own face to themselves. I think in such situation, a person has lost their true identity in order to show society what is accepted. 

That is a SIN! It is a sin to lose your true identity. That is what makes each person unique. That is what makes each person, a person.

NEVER LOSE YOUR TRUE SELF
