Final Thought:
‘Who am I’- it is a sentence consisting of three words. It seems very simple to hear but has a deep meaning which can leave us in profound thought. We all know that the identity of a person depends on his origin, family lineage and his religion. It is also applicable to me, and my identity is also related to my parents.
Now, I’ll try to approach the question, “who am I”. My first identity comes from my parents. Yes, I’m their child, and I’m proud of that. Besides, I’m glad to introduce myself as a practicing Muslim. These two are enough for me to define my identity.
But different people have different perceptions of me. Some people may think I’m a generous person; while some may think of me as an evil person. Again some of them can assume me as a cleaver; on the contrary, some can also think, I am a fool.
Will other’s perspectives define, who am I? No, it isn’t. It depends on what I think about myself. I don’t think I’m applicable to claim any of the above-mentioned criteria. I don’t think I am too good, I’m too tricky, and at the same time, I’m too bad to be criticized.
To me, I’m a simple person, who is enough good to feel other’s pain, who is bad enough to be assumed as self-centered with the haters. I’m too foolish to be cheated easily by others, at the same time; astute enough to survive to this cruel earth.
In my opinion, I’m a person; who is mixed with different characteristics, both good and bad. These are my perspectives about myself. But this is a difficult question to be answered. Many people in the world faced this difficulty. ‘Who am I quotes’ are the proof of it. You may go through these quotes to be acquainted with different answers to the questions.
