What we know matters but who we are matters more.
How do we define, how do we describe, how do we explain andor understand ourselves? What sort of creatures do we take ourselves to be? What are we? Who are we? Why are we? How do we come to be what or who we are or take ourselves to be? How do we give an account of ourselves? How do we account for ourselves, our actions, interactions, transactions (praxis), our biologic processes? Our specific human existence?
And the best way to know who we are is often to find out how others see us.
Language is our way of communicating what we want and who we are.
All the insight we will ever need to live well will come from fully being who and where we are.
You know, after all these years, it's just like we are who we are and it's a struggle for me and sometimes I'm heavier and sometimes I'm thinner.
Worship helps us find who we are and why God has placed us here on the earth. When we bow in God's presence with worship, only then are we made complete.
We are exceptional not because of who we are but because of what we do and how we put the ideals of human dignity, individual freedom, and liberty under law into action.
I think we just have to remember who the heck we are and speak to who we are and what we believe.
Maybe we all have a dark place inside of us, a place where dark thoughts and darker dreams live, but it doesn't have to become who we are.
We never know our good or bad as we loose our judgement living with them. worst part is we don't accept who we are & hence remain confused for the rest of our life.
Because we are not separate and we are a strand in the web of this existence, there is nothing about us - which includes who we are and what we do - that is not happening perfectly.
Maybe we're stuck with who we are.
I find it irresponsible to go, 'She's an actress, what does she know?' That means if you're a dentist, what do you know? If you're a lawyer, what do you know? It's our profession, it's what we do. It's not who we are.
Deep within us-no matter who we are-there lives a feeling of wanting to be lovable, of wanting to be the kind of person that others like to be with. And the greatest thing we can do is to let people know that they are loved and capable of loving.
Those experiences "made us who we are today!" It's just the way things are.
The poor tell us who we are, the prophets tell us who we could be, so we hide the poor, and kill the prophets.
We can love what we are, without hating what, and who, we are not.
As women, we need to embrace our bodies and be confident with who we are.
Our true worth doesn't come from the work we do, it comes from who we are as human beings.
