This is a more difficult topic than I thought. I'm very comfortable with who I am, and I feel that I know who I am, but when I started to think about what single thing to choose as a symbol to represent my life, I was faced with putting a lot more thought into it than I expected to. How do you assign a symbol to represent a person? There are many things in my life that show just a small part of who I am...There's my engagement ring as a symbol of the love and commitment in my relationship with my fiancée. My children symbolize what I am most proud of in life and what I have put the most of my time and energy towards. My backpack and laptop currently represents my academic life at this point. My many pairs of stiletto shoes represent my femininity. The random prints on some of the shirts that I wear to school give a small bit of my personality to the world. I really can't choose just one symbol to represent me. I'm way too complicated for that!!
Wow never really saw things that way. I really like the stiletto's part shoes are so awesome!
ReplyDeleteI think symbols are important and I agree that one symbol cannot really symbolize everything about someone. For me the Russian flag symbolizes a lot but not everything.
ReplyDeleteThank you for sharing that Brittany. We all are pretty complicated creatures. To chose a single symbol is a tough one. I can see how it's tough to pick in your case, those are all great symbols of who you are.
ReplyDeleteVery good post Brittany. I can see why it's hard for you to pick just one thing to symbolize you. You seem to be a very lovable person and free spirit. I enjoy reading this post.
