what is true Identity?

Few days back, I attended a lecture on Cosmos and the Universe. One of the most important things which I observed during lecture was that every scientific name which Professor was explaining was given on the basis of characteristic and behaviour of things. So the name itself was telling a very good story around it.

Suddenly I got (or rather caught) a thought, why can’t we give a name to human beings on the basis of their behaviour/nature or on their personality. It will surely be helpful for everyone to understand the other person just by knowing the name. Of course, it will difficult if there are multiple people with same personality but we can manage it by attaching the number at the last. Also we need to wait till the person grow up and we recognize his/her parameters.

I was just thinking what would be my name in that case. :) :) (Let's not discuss !!)

Every idea has one or two points which always resist you in implementation. (I seriously hate them…!!) Here in this case, what if the person changes his personality or basic nature over a period of time? Who will judge this? Also, the person needs to be agreed on his/her changes. I have seen that people gradually change with very little slope. So they don’t recognize the change very easily. If somebody tells them that you have changed, then they always ready with the answer, “I was like that only earlier” – even if the change is negative to positive.

So, I have no choice left before declaring my idea is actually fall under flop category. We can’t use above naming convention for mass of people where people are changing at every moment but very gradually.

However, our UID project will definitely help us as we are identifying the people based on number – a just 12 digit number. It is very long to remember, isn’t it?

I hope this complex 12 digit numbers will help us in true identification. As we all are holding many identities to recognize one individual person : Ration Card identity, Vote identity card, Passport, PAN Card, Driving licence, Phone number, Roll number in school, Employee No in Office, Bank account number in Bank and now this list has one more, a new Unique Identity Number.

It does not matter even if the person change his/her personality, behaviour or nature over a period of time. You will only be recognized based on this UID (Unique Identity Number). (At least in this life.)

I am very happy and waiting for rollout of UID all across my country.
