This strange creature is a chameleon. I posted a picture of this because it relates to one of the topics discussed in Chapter 7 about how we have multiple identities and how elements affect our performance. Chameleons are known for being able to "blend in" to their environment to protect themselves from predators. As human beings, we all have a chameleon aspect to ourselves. We change or adapt our stories based on the setting, audience, and performer. I have discovered there is no such thing as being a "universal" person. Meaning, there is no such thing as being the same person consistently no matter the situation. Although it would be nice, we have not progressed nearly enough for that.
