I know what you mean with your first post CrazyHobo. I too have noticed the changes throughout my life such as my imagination and what I perceived as possible including the things I believed in. My imagination for example was so incredible that I wrote a short book about a hamster with a Mohawk that had superpowers. I wrote another similar story about a hippo that could fly and found a time machine. one thing I remember is for some reason the name Edgar Allen Poe made me think of a hippo because that was the subject my class was talking about before assigning us the project of writing a story for creative expression. I'm pretty sure I believed in impossible things before but my current logic blocks me from understanding what concept I could of possibly thought such scenarios could be conceived. As far as the things I have believed in the past Ill admit I used to have Imaginary friends when I was in kindergarten and first grade after that I guess they died. I remember one was something that looked like what I would now describe as a furry green Pickachu without the ears and reminds me of broccoli now.
I guess what I am trying to say is I too struggle for my individuality so I am not consumed by the government/society. I do not want to be a part of that "namelessness" as you put it. I find it encouraging however that you and possibly many others understand this. I have not given up this fight and I never will.
CrazyHobo please note I am not in any way attempting/intending to be sucking up to you and also apologize in advance if this post steals your thunder.
