I am.... am I?


Let's start on paper:

I am my

Age

Social Security #

Birth date

Address

Income

But am I?

And to people

I am a

Daughter 

Sister 

Student

Citizen

Stranger

But am I?


There is more than just a word to describe me

There are

Memories

Loves

Losses

Fails

Wins 

Promises

Laughs

Tears

I am not words and numbers

I am my life

And that is more than paper and a person can describe
