how do you define yourself?
Is there a specific self definition; something that describes you, tid-bits of you to the outside world; to yourself...
my boss was ranting about his life - hes old and and has not done/ been a part of particularly anything spectacular in his life. He turned to me in mid sentence and said "you'll also end up like me..."
It stung - i laughed it off, but it stung
The realisation hit home few days later, i was having a discussion with a dear friend about a tattoo that I'm thinking of getting for myself.
"What do you stand for? What do you really consider really close to your heart? what do you think defines you?"
I was completely and totally lost, i could not think of it myself.
i was shocked that i had never even given it a thought - not given a thought to what i would like as a tattoo, but what i hold in the highest esteem.
I came up with family which was kinda lame because that i don't feel is a very unique trait - debatable - yes. But, I've never held anything dear in my life except for myself and my family. Which is intriguing and weird to think of when you do give it a thought; isn't there ANYTHING that i would hold in the highest esteem...
Am i going through life without thinking or am i thinking too much.
How does one go about defining ones life???
