Who are you meant to be?

Who am I, and what kind of person am I gifted to be? Most of us do not explicitly consider that question when we wake up in the morning with our first cup of coffee, and perhaps not as we go about the activities that consume our day. Nor is it likely that we ponder it in conversations with friends or co-workers. Nonetheless, whether the question is explicit or not, it is one that we answer nearly every moment of every day: in our choices, in our relationships, and in our approach to life.
