Question 1: Introduce Yourselves

[beepbird]

Let's get this community talking! 

Tell us about yourselves. What are your lived experiences with plurality? How do you understand yourselves?

If you're still figuring this all out (as we all are), then what do you know so far about your own experiences? What do you want to know?

Comments and posts responding to this prompt are both welcomed, though comments keep this question's answers easier to find (consider linking back to this post if you answer in your own post- it makes it easier to track!).

We are Rainbow Ocean. I think the biggest thing we can say about ourselves is that we are very inconsistent. In that regard, it's hard to say how we understand ourselves because our understanding is constantly changing!

We've known we're a system for under a year, but know we've been plural for a very long time. And um, what more there is to that is gonna depend on who you ask because nobody agrees on how it is or how it happened or how it even works.

But, overall our system experience has just been learning to let go of things, and be content with the lack of structure, the not knowing, and the maddening inconsistency. For, I/we think the best understanding of our systemhood is being both nothing, and everything, for those two are but the same.

Anyways! We're still very new to dreamwidth as a whole and getting the feel for things. But, we've mostly been posting random creative writing and some essay type of stuff so far. We wanna write stuff that helps people with their systemhood if we can, including us.
