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
