The social self and the private self

There is who you are in the room and who you are when the room empties, and the distance between those two is a map of what you have had to protect. Every tradition has noticed this gap — Augustine's public confessor and private hunger, the Confucian self that exists only in relation and yet longs for stillness. The health of a life may depend less on collapsing that gap than on knowing, honestly, where it is.
