Who am I? What am I doing here? Am I even a Thermophile?
I've been having an identity crisis as of late. Do you know that book "Are you my mother?", well the Thermophile I called mom (do we Thermophiles even have moms?) read that book to me an alarmingly high number of times during my youth, so much so that I've memorized and internalized the narrative. Perhaps to the point that it now is forcing me to question my own identity as a Thermophile, I want to go to my mother and ask her that very same question, "Are you my mother?" - I want to ask the woman who I called mother that question even though I'm realizing I'm truly not sure that we Thermophiles even have mothers to speak of!

Let the others clamber around in the pit of love they've dug for themselves, I'm offering you a ladder to the sun, to something unknown and different, to something bursting with possibility, YES, for love perhaps, but also for more, for a you that actually speaks to you, for an us that doesn't make us feel so alone, and for a future that we can see ourselves smiling in - please, someone, anyone, everyone - join me in this future I see for us, and mom, I don't need an answer to my burning question, I just need to know that someone accepts me if I'm a Thermophile or no, if I'm an acido or no, basically no matter what I am so I guess I do want to know "Are you my mother?" but only if mother means someone who will love me unconditionally, and in that way anyone could be my mother.
Dear World,
Are you my mother?
