Identity Doesn't Just Stop
At Your Name:
A person’s identity does not
just stop at the name they are given at birth. That is the way most of a
person’s peers will identity someone right away but there is more to it. The
way a person choses to represent themselves to society and what they actions
include are what makes up the bulk of their identity. To me, my identity is
consistently made up of my family, friends, and underneath it all is softball.
Some things are more important to me than others, but all of them play some
sort of role in my life. The center of my collage is a picture of my dad, my
sister and me. They are the most important people to me in life and I have no
idea where I would be without them. In the circle around them are the
other people in my family. This includes my grandparents, aunt, uncle and
cousins. I am very close to my family so they are another huge part of my
identity. They have all taught me how to be a strong
and independent person. The outer circle consists of
pictures of my friends. These include friends from 1st grade to freshman year
of college. They are all important people to me and have helped shaped who I
am. The people you surround yourself with are also another huge part of
your identity. The softball field is the background because I love the sport.
Family and friends come first but there is always softball behind it all.
I couldn't imagine not playing which is why I chose to continue my career at
Bridgewater.
