'You know it's wonderful to see another world. It's entirely unlike anything that has ever come to your thoughts. And everything in it fits. You couldn't have dreamed it up yourself, but somehow it all seems to work, and each tiny part is related. Everything except me. If I had known I was only going to stay a short while, this would have been the most exciting thing I could imagine – a marvel in my life. But to know that it's for ever, that I'll always be here where I'm not able to belong, and that I'll never be able to get back home, never . . .'

In the moment, separating your past self from your current self can be unsettling. Even positive changes can lead to negative emotions; evolving your identity can leave you feeling derailed and disconnected. Over time, though, rethinking who you are appears to become mentally healthy-as long as you can tell a coherent story about how you got from past to present you. In one study, when people felt detached from their past selves, they became less depressed over the course of the year. When you feel as if your life is changing direction, and you're in the process of shifting who you are, it's easier to walk away from foolish beliefs you once held.
My past self was Mr. Facts-I was too fixated on knowing. Now I'm more interested in finding out what I don't know. As Bridgewater founder Ray Dalio told me, "If you don't look back at yourself and think, 'Wow, how stupid I was a year ago, then you must not have learned much in the last year."
The second kind of detachment is separating your opinions from your identity. I'm guessing you wouldn't want to see a doctor whose iden- tity is Professional Lobotomist, send your kids to a teacher whose identity is Corporal Punisher, or live in a town where the police chief's identity is Stop-and-Frisker. Once upon a time, all of these practices were seen as reasonable and effective.

Günlerim ya Mustafa’nın defnedildiği mezarlıkta, ya da Efendimizin
(a.s.m.) mescidinde geçiyordu.
Artık kendi kendime, bu iki dünya arasında ömrümü geçirmek için
karar almıştım. Benim evim, yurdum ve dünyam burası olacaktı.
Mustafa’nın yanından bir saniye bile ayrılmayacaktım.
Ama Mustafa’dan gelen mesaj her şeyi altüst etmişti.
O gün yine
Kişi sevdiğiyle beraberdir.( Hadis-i Şerif)
Öğlene doğru evlilik, aşk ve sevda konusunda kendisine Süheyb’i
örnek alan Mustafa’nın, Efendimizin (a.s.m.) manevî huzurunda,
şükür gözyaşlarıyla ruhunu teslim ettiğini öğrenmiştim.
