Identity is who one is as an individual. It may include aspects such as values, goals, and ones everyday environment. In my life, values greatly impact my identity. Day to day our society faces my biggest concern, gender inequality. Even though female discrimination was abolished around (set date), it’s still happening today under our noses.

I like to think of myself as someone who would help others only out of the kindness of my heart. I want to believe this because it allows me to think of myself as a kindhearted person. Unfortunately, I am not able to be that kind of person at home. I am mostly sarcastic, rude, irritable, and aggressive around my family. Because of this, my family doesn’t think of me as a loving and helpful person. Instead, they believe that I am a coldhearted monster because of my “inhuman” strength and also because of how rarely I cry. Additionally, I get very grumpy and stubborn when I get yelled at to do something, which would explain why my family does not think very highly of me.

It takes courage and strength to know who you are, but even more to tell someone. Today I will be telling you about me and my identity. I would describe my identity as being a person who works hard for what she wants, and who tries to be nice but isn’t always. Personally I would label myself as a competitive swimmer, and a person who works hard at whatever I do. Other people might label me as a person who tries hard at what she does, but also can come across bossy. No matter what any of them think I will never change so that a person will like me.
