We learn new things everyday and meet new people who we learn from. I also agree with you and how we adapt to fit in, I believe we do this to be a part of the dominant group in society.

Yes, this doesn't identify me completely but it does play a role in how I view myself and my identity. Since a young age I have learned that woman play a huge role in society, and we are important even though we are put in a subordinate group.

But even though I was put in this subordinate group from a young age I didn't let it define me and I chose my own place.

If we as individuals begin to acknowledge our complex identity as well as others it will help us view the bigger picture. We will learn how to see differences in each other as a good thing and not a bad thing. -Aylin Sat, 12 Sep 2020 18:44:41 -0700 https://nowcomment.com/documents/222331?scroll_to=2034982 https://nowcomment.com/documents/222331?scroll_to=2034982 We learn from our experiences and surroundings in life and we form our individuality from these experiences. It's important that we acknowledge this complexity in ourselves and others so we can learn from one another. As well as becoming in tune with what we enjoy in life and what brings us joy.

I also agree with you saying we learn from each other! I think it’s important to learn from each other’s stories because we grow as people.

Who Am I stories show others who you are as a person and how the experiences you’ve experienced mold you into who you are and what you believe, how you act,etc. Thu, 03 Sep 2020 20:07:40 -0700
