On my own I cannot. But if I let God lead me, I can and will change.

Look at who you were 10, 20, 30 years ago. Were you the same person as you are now?
1) You may have had a change in worldview or some other important mental transformation or evolution.
2) In a more literal sense, the strict answer is no, you're not the same. In fact, not a single atom in your body today was there a decade ago.

ultimately, no. You are a perfect divine soul at your deeper levels. But there are all the other levels, mainly the mental level and that you can change. It's a what much more than a who. "You" is made up mostly of thoughts you have about your body, your car, your house, your relationships with people, but they are mostly thoughts. This is much different than having actual communion with other beings. You don't need to have thoughts about yourself (or a you) to have communion with someone. You can just sit there with them and be in the same energy field with them and love them and have them love you and feel each other's energies. No thought whatsoever required. :-)

Yes. Anyone can change. You just have to change your perspective if you feel you need to. All people change over time. Noone stays exactly the same over the years. Our experiences change our views constantly. If change is deemed necessary for one's survival, then I say yes, anyone can change.

No you cannot. You are always you. You may be able to change your actions and even some of your traits and habits, and perhaps even overcome some of your baggage.
But you're still you. Just with different characteristics and perhaps even a new nose.

I believe all of us are constantly changing both physically and psychologically. Change is the only condition of life that is constant.

Over time, yes. The best part is it happens whether you want it to or not--for better or for worse, we are the sum of our experiences. The trick is to encourage yourself to have experiences that make you into a better person, because blood never washes off.

I believe it is possible to change who you are.

Not unless you're willing to go through a sex change operation or a legal change of identity.

I suppose to some extent I could, But I would not want to. I love who I have become and I don't want to erase the things that brought me here.
