My sense of 'I' is never constant, me as 8 yr old is totally different person to whom I am right now. And If I were to suffer amnesia, what 'I' am would be different given my lack of memories. So 'I' and 'You' is ever changing.
Changing, but not totally changing. Your DNA, memories, learned skills, competencies, preferences, blood type, lost body parts and a billion other things are remarkably static or continuous throughout your life.
True but without my memories it wouldnt be me .And what I was 5 yrs back or 10 yrs back or 15 yrs back and so on are different creatures.They are not me as I am now. And eventually I would die and my body disintegrates and would my disintegrating body also be me?.And the entire mass of what constitutes me was yet to come before my birth.So even by continuing your own logic, I would change totally. And in long age of universe, what constitutes my life is a minuscule blip. I never said "I am you" is right , I said
As far as 'I am you' is concerned. There is no 'I' and no 'you'. We are all a part of universe, so we are all one. So, that is true
To make it clear, I should have written as I thought. There is no absolute "I" or absolute "you". I changes, hence we are all one in the sense of being part of the same universe.
