Defining who I am…
Is there a way to define a person? Mounds of research have been conducted in order to pinpoint personality types. Type in personality types in a Google search and you will find over 32 million sites related to the subject. 32 MILLION! How much research should really be conducted to figure out one’s personality? Are you type A or B? What is type A and what is type B? Are you melancholy or aggressive? Are you controlling? Are you quite and shy or outgoing and loud? True people might have common “personality traits” but we are all unique in our own ways… no two people are exactly alike.
I don’t need to take a personality test to know who I am, I know who I am.
My passions in life define who I am. Family, friends, church, writing, dancing, softball, golf, graphic design, video production, music, science, travel, food, cooking, teaching, working, politics, and the list keeps growing everyday. Everyday I learn something new about myself. Everyday I try to better myself. Everyday I redefine myself.
When most people get to know me their first observation is “well most girls would like ___”. My response “I am not like most girls”. Why do we have to be “like one another”? Why do we try to define a “normal”? I am “not like most girls” because I don’t want to be normal. I will never follow the norm. Normal is boring. I will never try to be someone I'm not.
So who am I… loving, kind, caring, generous, selfless, motivated, competitive, strong willed, strong hearted, tough, aggressive, shy, quite, intelligent, daring, honest, stubborn, and friendly. I will never settle for second best. I give 100% of my heart, mind, body, and soul to my family and friends. I’m not fake but real. So who am I… my mother’s daughter, my father’s little girl, my sister’s best friend… I am me. I am who I want to be.
It does not take rocket science or years of research to figure out your “personality type”. Don’t be afraid to define yourself… YOU know YOU better than anyone else.
