Identity in Spirituality

The path to spirituality starts with self-identity, knowing yourself, who you are, and asking questions about your existence. It takes a simple question such as: Who am I? Why am I here? That helps us understand our very own purpose in life. We often ask ourselves the question: Are we who we say we are, or who others want us to be? It all starts with the perception of self-identity, how we perceive ourselves and how others perceive us. In a perfect world, I am my own person, in harmony with myself and the universe, without constraints and ties to bind or imprison me. That would be a perfect definition of freedom. In a given world, we perceive ourselves as perfect creations. There is good inside every one of us, no matter how the others see us.
