This totally misses the wood for the trees!
Either: your consciousness/personality is an emergent phenomenon resulting from the community of cells that make up your body - think like how countries can...
I lean towards the latter as things emerging from the sea of potential need something that binds them. Without a consciousness observing them, they are, at base layer, just that: potential to be something. I forgot the name for the smallest unit we can observe, but at some point there is no distinction possible on the lowest level.
