You only
feel like you have one body, but it's actually made up of millions of cells and dozens of organs.
You think you drive a car, but actually you're driving hundreds of separate bits of metal, plasic, rubber, and gasoline.
One thing can be made up of parts, y'know. Minds included.
ADDED: And you can change the tires on it without making it a "different car".
