i believe that having these different fragments of selfs are both good and bad. On one side not combining these different areas in your life is safer emotionally because at times you get so wound up in one aspect of your life that you need another loophole out, which may be another fragment such as your personal life or whatever it may be. by combining all lifestyles i think can be hectic and a bit of a load to carry.
If we think of ourselves as being fragmented, is it because we don’t feel like we belong? I believe that thinking of unititng them creates the confusion. Instead think of it as you are putting a different part of yourself (personality wise) in each aspect of life, such as work life or family life. Having small parts of your personality within each “fragmented being” makes it easier to cope with life.

I beileve that we do seperate our “lives” and that it is scary to combine them, but it is a slow and easy process. Sometimes it is necesary to seperate them from each other in order to focus better on the one.

We tend to think of our lives as if we are fragmented beings, one living “my work life” one living “my personal life” and one living “my spiritual life” and perhaps one living “my familiy life”. In sometimes having awareness in one or more of these, it sometimes seems that having no self unites them or is it not having fragmented selves that unites them? Or is it thinking of uniting them that creates confusioin?
