Are you really who you are?

Posted on April 11, 2012 by Mr. Bell

Hi Class! A real thinkers topic here…Are you really who you are? Do you pretend to be someone else? How often? Does who you are change from situation to situation? When is it acceptable to pretend to be someone you are not? Is there anything more important than being whoever you actually are?

    Its important to be yourself. Don’t be someone your not. In some situations it is alright to be yourself. Like when a stranger comes up to you and asks you your first and last name and personal stuff about you. It is fine to pretend to be someone else to keep you safe.

    I’m occasionally myself around my friends, family, and even strangers. I tend to act nicely or shyly around people just like I always do. If I “have” to act differently for a friend or a person I know. By the way. My Little Pony is the BEST SHOW EVER!!!!!! 😀

    I act differently around adults, I try to be more respectful. when I’m around girls or older woman I try to be a gentleman. around friends I’m still respectful but I don’t care what I say as much.

      Should the age or gender of the person determine the amount of respect you demonstrate?

        Well maybe not the gender, but the age of someone should deturmine your word chose. I dont think that someone would go up to an elderly person and start calling them ” my brother from another mother,” or ” my sister from another mister”. That would be disrespectful in my opinion.

          So, would you treat an elderly female in a more respectful way than a middle aged female or young female? Does age really matter when respecting others?

          Quick Fixes:
          – determine
          – choice (choose, chose)
          – do + not = don’t

    I’m my self and I try to be my self most of the time. On the other hand, I sometimes have to tweak the way I act in some situations. I try to be my self most of the time when around people.

    I think it’s important to be yourself at all moments in your life. Only way to act different is if your in danger.
