Who are you?

Who are you? You are not your career. You are not your home. You are not your race, (because race isn't real, only a construct). You are not your gender, but you play a male or a female role. We usually confuse the role(s) we play with who we are. Who are you? The question to ask is: "Who am I?" Most of your discoveries will be along the lines of who you are not. Consider not identifying with the role, but just playing it---parent, manager, employee, male, female, leader, service provider, neighbor, mother, father, sister, brother, son, daughter--these are all roles. In prayer or meditation, or contemplation ask: Who am I?
