How do we determine who we are? Are you someones daughter, son, mother, father, brother, sister? Are we our profession or job? At school my second son was often referred to as Jason's bother John, of course he hated it. we are after all, unique individuals. When you stop thinking and doing, and just be- who are you?

Well when I go back to Russia I am Natalia's daughter, when I go to visit my partner's family in Argentina, I am Eduardo's woman, and the little girl across the road calls mt The Cat Lady............ but primarily, I am myself! I am a strong, independant person - I have lived my life to the full, and I am glad for that. Of course I've made some mistakes - everyone has - hut I don't regret anything because I've learnt from them and moved on! My man calls me "buena estrellita" which basically means his little lucky star, because he says I have strength and beauty just like a star............ isn't he an old romatic - LOL! But I do quite like to think of myself like that!!

Sometimes i do not know who am i especially when i am depressed, and sometimes i really know who am i and confident greatly.I think the latter is the real self.

We all play roles in life that make us who we are. I am a wife, a daughter, an aunt, a sister, a mother to 4 cats, a student in everyday life, a friend, and may other things. We all incorporate these roles that make us who we are. To put it simply, we are who we are.

I think I am what every people is, because I have met and mingled with almost all of them. I befriended poor and rich people, I met people that I never knew who'd be in the future. I am glad to share my life with them, because I am now somehow a part of what they are right now.. In short, I can be what you WANT to think of me..

each of us plays virous roles in daily life. so the world is going around all the time.. but who are we?that's a question no one can get the answer.i would like to say,i am who i am .i am unique and no one can take my place.there is no need to worship anyone.what i should do is just to make myself come closer to perfect.be confident i am the best,i am who i am. it's just my personal opinion.haha..
