Trying to figure out who I am
Filed in an entire category of blog posts called “Introspection” I found what probably qualifies as the steryotypical blog post.It is introspective, more than that it considers its own introspection. Contrary to the stereotype, it somehow held my attention. Perhaps this is because I can relate to it. This entry, entitled Trying to figure out who I am considers a personal history of self-identification, part of a blog called Through A Glass Darkly. if this is any indication of the content, the blog is well named.
I had a discussion with a friend of mine about identity, and how, when things change and you can no longer identify yourself in certain ways, it can be difficult to forge your new “identity.” That got me thinking about the different ways I have identified myself over my life.
