It would be like asking, "How is a H2O molecule wet?"
"Me" is an idea, the idea of those processes that, together in a particular way, form what we know as a person. "Possession" is an idea, the idea of "I own": that "things" can belonging to the person. "H2O molecule" is an idea, the idea that two hydrogren and one oxygen molecule combine to make another stable substance.

We can talk about these things in ways that make sense.

...And? I thought that was a given.

If it is given that 'me' that is considered 'me' is only an image then what i have been saying is already proven. A image in a mirror is powerless to know the face. But the person who is reflected in the mirror may say "That is me". It is an error -- a deep rooted one.

No it would not. If it was, then talking about a product investigate its cause is wonky (i have borrowed this word).

It is nature of water to be wet. It is nature of existence to act through many 'me's.
