Sometimes we devote so much effort to being what we are not, that we lose the chance to be what we are.
We have one identity for this person and another for that one.
Our co-workers, neighbors, friends, and family all expect different things of us, leaving us wondering who we actually are.
How can we be so many different things to so many people?
We were created with unique characteristics for a purpose, even if that purpose isn't always clear to us. We need to be who we really are, and to be the best we can be, knowing that God approves because God created us as we are.
I will be the best me that I know how to be.

"We have one identity for this person and another for that one."
I always thought more that we are, each of us, made of many parts and each part comes to the fore as needed to cope with different situations and people. But I suppose at the heart there's a something that makes us more than the sum of the parts.
