Who Are You?
Wish upon a star, to know who you are?
Who Am I ...
Do you wonder who you are Really? Deep inside? Before the koan of one hand clapping was even a twinkle in a Roshi's aye?
Seriously, this is one of the most important questions in life you can ask yourself. And what may bubble up as answers are all the things people have told you that you are. All the labels that society and the culture you live in have put on you, like the grey dots and gold stars of You Are Special by Max Lucado. Son, daughter, wife, mother, husband, boyfriend -- they are just labels. So are the titles we use when people ask about us and we describe what we have or do -- homeowner, manager, accountant, musician.
To truly answer this question, we need to look deep inside and discover all the unique things about us that make us different and special.
If you want to get started, I recommend these tools as a starting point.
