I attended service last Sunday & our interim rector Celeste in her sermon spoke about who WE are. She said something that has stayed with me since I left that morning....she said "What we do is who we are"....hmmm - I just can't shake that....What WE do IS who we ARE...think about that...who are YOU? Who am I really? I have thought about this for a few days, walking around repeating it even out loud thinking and questioning myself asking myself "what do I do that makes me who I am?" "Am I even good at it?"....lol......So this is my conclusion.... What I do....I am a woman who wears many hats, juggles a full time job, mother, wife, maid, dog owner and a few other positions.....That's WHO I am....I am a DOer....(not a real word)....But I DO for others....I help others, I listen, I have faith, I am a good friend, wife, school teacher, mom, cook, maid.... I TRY.....That's who I am...I like who I am...
How did I become that way is another question.....was I brought up that way? Yes and No.....I came from a close minded family, but as I grew up and found myself I found helping others to be my destination. I challenge you to figure out who you are....Comment back to this post and share if you would like...you may inspire someone or even figure out yourself along the way.
"What we do is who we are" - What do you do that makes you who you are today?
I will leave you with a quote I recently discovered that rings true
