Nameless

I think a name does not define you, rather it limits you. With a name you become part of the identifiable crowd, just another passing fad, another transcient season, like summer, winter or worse still spring. You tell me your name, i will not remember it, i shall remember you're face, that title given to you by your parents becomes nothing in my memory, it fades away much like the sun yields to the moon and vice versa. but we all need names, we need an identity, to fit in, to be part of something because as they say, we are social animals. we cannot survive alone, in solitude, thus we create this false titles that supposedly empower us to belong. What if your name was Alhamathadiatarian, imagine how school would be like? 98% of the teachers will not be able to pronounce it, they won't even care about trying, infact more likely than not they will mock you. How does that affect you as an adult? you know they say the scars of childhood remain till you turn to dust. At times these names, which we so envy, they alienate us. Yes, i agree my example was a little absurd, but think about it this way, what about the poor Asian (not poor economically, i'm just trying to place a little pity within the subject)with the Asian name, how does he feel when he goes to an airport, all because of the sins of someone who did not necessarily share his name. Do you get my point? I say we ban names effective immediately and we name ourselves with numbers (if you are bright you noticed the irony of what i just said)
