When did I become I?

Hmmm, this one is a bit tricky. I do believe I have memories from the womb (I can explain). So, if I have (my) memories from the womb, I must have been "I" then, in the womb, before my body left my mom's (thanks mom!).

When did I become I? Must have been that I have always been I but have started using this body, which I now call mine, at some point during this body's development. Perhaps it was during conception, perhaps not, I don't quite know.

What I do know is that this body of mine has served my purpose on Earth very well so far, thank you very much.

What do you think? When did you become an "I?"

Can I be dead?

Well, no! Simply because when I die my body stops hosting an "I" - ergo, I can die but not be dead!
