Who I Am

I met a middle aged woman who had, because of a brain injury, forgotten who she was. But she had people around to tell her who she was. It got me thinking who I am. Am I who I think I am, or am I who I hear people telling me I am? When I hear myself telling me who I am, is it me, or is it a mix of opinions in my head that sound out in my inner voice? When I look at myself in the mirror, am I looking at me or what people have told me to look at?

I like to think I have a ton of confidence. Am I confident in myself, or am I confident in what others have told me myself is?


None of that really applies to me. I feel confident in who I am, and I’m pretty sure it is my own opinion. But for the woman I met, all that applies. It’s what she thinks every day, many times over. It’s what is in her head.

I'm not one to let bad people do bad things and not let them get away with it. I'll throw everything at them, including the kitchen sink....
