our limitations dont define us

[Parsons]

we are not defined by our limitations whatever they might be. they are like a suit of clothes that we wear and then take off. we are not the clothes we wear. so whatever battles or struggles we might have in this life are not us, do not define us, but we chose them before we incarnated here, not as some punishment but as a contribution to the whole. just my take

You reminded me of this excellent STP song very, very strongly; as I think you just described what the song is about. Many people just respond with archetypes that they believe are appropriate instead of using their raw consciousness/responding in a dynamic fashion. An example of this would be to act like macho-man when talking to another male and bringing up football or drinking excessively.

Hey you, someone said you were lost out there
In the grip, trying to strangle us all down here
In the meantime, are you ever gonna set us free
Hey you, will we ever get out of here?

Are you ever gonna surrender
do you even care
Wasn't talking about sweet submission
It wasn't even there

All in the suit that you wear
When you're looking for something
It's in the suit that you wear
when you're hiding from someone
All in the suit that you wear
When you wear it

Hey You, you keep a-walking the razor
On the edge, you cut your feet when you stand in there
In the meantime, there's always someone to set you free
Hey You, will you ever get out of there

It also has bonus references that aren't related to this topic specifically but yet on our situation here in 3D in general: "Hey you, someone said you were lost out there. In the grip, trying to strangle us all down here".

Another reference would seem to directly refer to Seeking: "All in the suit that you wear when you're looking for something".
