Roles We Hold
Mother, daughter, father, son, wife, husband, aunt,
citizen, neighbor, nurse, caretaker, etc. It can be
fascinating to contemplate the myriad of roles
we hold in life, each one with its own special
contribution or experience. I invite you to consider
the roles you maintain. It may strike you that we
bring different parts of ourselves to the various
roles that we live out.
Is there a certain role that you
have found to be more fulfilling
and satisfying? Why do you think
that is so?
"Every individual has a place
to fill in the world, and is
important, in some respect,
whether he chooses to be
so or not." - Nathaniel Hawthorne
