You’re walking down a dangerous path, letting go of major parts of the pattern.
Keep in mind that the genetic differences separating us and our caveman ancestors are very minor, to judge the importance and impact of our mind-programming.
Deconstructing the past does unconstrain your present self—but is that a gain of options, or are you set aloof like a leaf in the wind? This moment’s present is the next moment’s past (“You have just begun reading the sentence that you have just finished reading”). What remains that will tether you to the common ground of the fabric of society that stretches and pulls the strings from the past?
If you take that project of yours seriously, there may not be an easy route back. Once you taught yourself to see the futility in your past selves’ purpose, how will you unsee that?

Wise reflections. A little too late. (It’s not a project. it is a fact that happened to me already) But Yoda-like nevertheless.
