Where people try to find magic and mythology, they forget they can find it here, right where they shit and speak, their self.
Where people want to disappear into the land of energy and power, they can't see that it is here, right where they sit and walk, the universe.
Today, I claim there is such thing as Shapeshifters, maybe more accurately be called Personality shifters, but for mythological sake, and avoiding the use of bad sounding names, we shall call them Shapeshifters.
Who are the Shapeshifters, and what can they do?
Shapeshifters refers, in the mythological world, to a person that can shift his/her shape into another's, sometimes into an animal, or an elemental form.
Basically, someone that can change their form to whatever desired, or however their ability limits to.
In the "real-world", Shapeshifters are persons that are able to change their personality representation, without putting on a fake mask, to better suite the person they are communicating to. Simply put, they can make everyone comfortable with them if their ability extends to maximum human capabilities.
Of course they are constrained by only the people they meet around them, Shapeshifters take certain attributes of those people and transfer them into their's, secretly. By doing so, the other person can almost see a mirror of himself, or a mirror of what would be comfortable for him/her, and feel safe and secure around Shapeshifters.
Please do not confuse Shapeshifters with ass-kissers, for they still reflect themselves, but because they are a flexible being, and their self is a secret and complicated thing, they have no cares of changing small things in them to better illustrate and communicate their ideas and talks with others.
Sounds scary? Such power can create a dangerous being. But you must release for such being to become a Shapeshifter, he/she needs to be on a high level of awareness and consciousness, therefore they won't easily use such powers to gain superficial needs.
The most frustrating of all, you're almost unable to learn their true self. And with Shapeshifters themselves, sometimes they lose the understanding of their true self.
It is a power with a double-edge.

i think it is not possible to lose ones understanding of ones true self Ahmed... in fact how could you define ones true nature anyway -disregarding theistic/philosophic or otherwise theoretical arguments on the true nature of being, and taking into account that all these plus the everyday aspects of ordinary reality are woven into the fabric of our beings to constitute our "individuality" from the moment of our birth and continues to the moment of our death ..[perhaps beyond!?!?]- apart from the ability to let go/let flow with that which comes to you/from you and through you. yes we all shit.. for good reason, sometimes we need to shit culture/ideas and from that shit (or roundabouts) grows the lush green sprout of new life :D
Such thing as losing oneself can be called lost. I agree that the true nature of a person cannot be defined. Although, someone that doesn't understand or is not able to comprehend his/her own reality, would be called, in my opinion, a person that has lost ones understanding of ones true self. Of course not always permanently, that depends on the person.
