Good question.... Who are you really? Are you some body with a person inside or are you some person inside a body. What makes you you. I guess there are several different types of answers that can go into this. I tend to believe that in some ways we are shaped by our experiences and environment in which we grow. However, there are some definite innate characteristics of people that will be that way no matter what environment they are born or raised into. I guess, the big deal here is that whether or not our environment shapes us, we are the ones that make the choices, the ones that decide what to let affect us and how to act or react to a situation. The bottom line is you are who you choose to be, just because you've had some hardships or whatnot, it isn't the excuse to take shortcuts or do whatever you want. YOU CAN ALWAYS CHOOSE TO BE NICE.
One thing though, watch what you put into your mind, whatever you put in, you can NEVER get out.
