The power of fluidity
I believe that “military brats” such as me mastered the art of fluidity young - in an unceasing effort to fit in.
Is this not a form of code switching?
At what point does truth come into play? It appears fluidity is the anti-truth by definition.

Syncretic way of life- it comes from living in and learning to live with other cultures Grant. I wrote about it in my piece on identity where folks knifed me for being more Hyderabadi- https://www.siasat.com/my-name-is-hema-malini-and-i-am-a-pucca-hyderabadi-2060260/?fbclid=IwAR10VGp8XSmmQ4kYMn_SjNb7ZJ0WX8WwmAgageECvHsXIA-QvVDSG0IlLfw

I've written about this in my column for Communication Arts. I call it cultural shapeshifting.
