I am my mother’s daughter.

I am perseverant,

I am passionate,

I am unwilling to settle.

With a love for teaching and a wish to help others,

I am my mother

I am my father’s daughter.

I am analytical,

I am practical.

I am ever-loving

With a strong will to lead but the yearn to please others, 

I am my father.

I am my brother:

lighthearted

I am my grandma:

intelligent

I am my grandpa:

exuberant

I am a product of my environment, a reflection of the people I love. 

But I am still an individual.

Full of individual thoughts,

individual feelings.

I am not my mother’s love for young children.

I am not my father’s business savvy.

I am not my brother’s sense of humor.

I am not my grandma’s baking abilities.

And I am not my grandpa’s love for the outdoors. 

I am me.

I am me.

I am me.
