Ok now that I got your attention who are you, really? How do you see yourself and how do others see you? Are you an object, does your voice matter? Do you get respected and allowed to make your own choices or is someone else supposed to do that for you? Do you earn what's yours or do you just enjoy what others earn? Who are you?

I'm joey :P I'm pretty much same as I am on here. Friendly, caring, supportive etc Those who know would probably nice things about me, what that would be I have no clue. Sure, I've always been given respect and able to make my choices and I've learnt from mistakes too. ~Joey

I never know who I am. Does anyone ever know who they are? Should we know who we are? We think that we are who we are, but are we really that which we think that we are? I think that we are not.

i see myself as a family lover. i love my parents and my siblings and i believe, when i have a family of my own, i will be a great mom to my kids and a great wife for my husband. people think of me as an easy going person. what they don't know is i am not. i live by standards and i follow rules. i like to make plans for my life and do what i can to put those plans into action. and i hate easy going persons. i find them lazy and i am not a lazy person. i am allowed to make my own choices. but still, i try to balance everything. doing my own choices by not hurting anyone is my best way of doing things. i earn what's mine. i hate asking so much from people as i hate being a burden to them. i work hard not just for myself but i share my blessings to the people i love and adore. this is just a part of me... and i love myself... anne

Anne you are a great person and you remind me of me at your age. I would have been a great wife and a great mom, I've always known that. No one's ever thought me an easy going person though - I set high standards for myself and people I that are dear to me. Thank you very much for commenting and I so hope all of your dreams and plans come to be :)

What a good question. Honestly, with all the roles that I play, sometimes I get confused already as to who I really am. Let's see... Well, I am aware that my friends value my opinion, my husband sees me as somebody very important in his life, and my children look up to me and love me dearly. I guess, the bottom line, is that I am good person. I'd like to believe that anyway. Apart from the more profound statement that I was created by God to glorify and praise Him, I am a unique person. And I have a clear purpose in life.

Thank you for commenting. It's easy with all the roles we play for other to forget who we are. You have not. :)

I am very much proud to say that "I am a Child of God", and that's indeed my true identity here on earth and being a child of God my mission is to spread His Word to the whole world and to all the people who needs it...it's only God who can make my path straight in life and lead me into His direction, in a safe way 'God's way'. :-)

I definetely respect that and consider myself the same. As individuals God has given us each different gifts and talents to do his work while we stand out on our own merits and walk our own path with him. Thank you for commenting.

Who am I? I'm a very strong willed, strong minded, big hearted, kind woman...I speak for myself, I speak for others when needed and asked of me, I am both a teacher and student in life..I'm respected and looked up to by many of all ages, I'm also hardheaded, stubborn and fiesty....I'm a child, I'm an adult, I'm silly and serious...I'm intelligent yet still learning and the list goes on....I'm many things really...and I'm aware of all aspects of myself...

Who am I? I am a lazy girl. I am not realistic. I like romantic. I'm a kind girl and it is easy for me to make friends with stangers as long as I like. People think I'm a lazy, kind girl without strong will. I'm easy to bother by others' views. Sometimes I can't go to sleep when I know someone misunderstand me. But I don't want to correct it, if he/she is not my friends. Now I quit my job, so I can't support my living by myself, What a ashame!
