How do you define yourself? I mean, as an individual and as a person. For example I define myself as a brewer first and foremost, not just because it's my job but because I am passionate about beer, the art of beer, and the process. A good friend of mine is a bartender for a living, but he defines himself as a musician as that is who he feels he is. So, how do you define yourself? What/who are you?

By what's most important to me. I am a father, a husband and the director of marketing. In that order. It pisses Mrs Charlie off, but I choose Nicholas every time. He doesn't understand the world around him, and can't fend for himself. She can.

I'm a strong independent black women that don't need no man, words can't define me.

As i try discern the meaning Of a tiny treasure gleaming In the spotlight 'neath the ceiling Of this dusty worn-out corpse I find myself looking At a part of me that's not hooking To the packaged forms of life provided by the corps The grizzly entrails and Bullingdon coat tails That no longer need to hide themselves, dance together on the floor And i tell myself that it is wrong And i know myself that it is wrong No one can package love, of this i am certain So to go for that is to raise the final curtain To change the ending to the play we know so well And to save us all from the pits of eternal hell

A balanced person, both a successful runner and advanced student (I graduated from high school at 16 w/ 4+ gpa on a 4-pt scale). On the outside, I rarely show emotion except when smiling or laughing, so-so and negative emotions all give me the same level expression. On the inside, my emotions are much more extreme: when I'm happy, I'm [i]happy[/i]. When I really am saddened, I get depressed, literally. And when I get angry, I get [u]pissed.[/u] I'm proud to say I've managed to improve my temper over the years. I am neither religious nor atheist, but neither is agnostic the right word. In the end, I don't follow any one religion, but my own acquired beliefs and morals. I will always follow facts and reason before what I want to believe, and will not cling to a belief I later find to be morally or factually wrong. I am open-minded, and willing to listen, understand, and sometimes agree with all sides of an argument, but I will firmly hold my own and I know how to back up my words. I enjoy gaming, and the outdoors (no hunting, though), reading, and heading out with my close friends in smaller groups, but under most circumstances I can be about as happy on my own. I refuse to smoke or drink under any circumstances whatsoever. I am comfortable around members of the opposite gender, but getting close to them (or anyone, for that matter) is difficult for me. I consider close relationships to be one of the most important things in the entire world, which is why I have had very few of them. I think this is probably longer than necessary, but it's hard for me to describe myself, so I choose to write more rather than less. It would be easier if the questions were more specific, so if you want to know more, or have me clarify something, [i]ask[/i]. Peace, I'm out.

I've thought about this quite a bit, and came to the conclusion that I don't want to define myself. I reject the notion that I boil down to something as simple as a moniker or single sentence/paragraph descriptor. It annoys me when I see people doing that. Like people defining themselves by way of a job or hobby or sexual orientation. Those people are almost certainly more dynamic than a short descriptor and approximation. Why limit yourself to the approximation? That's not to say I won't use simple short hand descriptions to describe myself, I just reject the notion that doing so defines me, or anyone else. I don't like the notion of that sort of reductive philosophy, since its firstly not accurate, and secondly almost insulting to people who are more dynamic than a simple descriptor.

I'm an Indie Christian Artist (music, not artwork). I love writing and playing songs that the Lord gives to me in my brokenness, and in my strongest moments. There is nothing like fulfilling your God-given purpose. I'm a people person, enjoy philosophical discussion and your average friendly banter.

Edited by KrankReality: 1/17/2014 1:39:26 AMHAH [spoiler]I love how I can always think of something to say for most every topic, but as soon as the question "who are you/ how would you define yourself" rears its head, jeez. I just sit there like "Who the [i]fu[/i]ck am I?"[/spoiler]

I'm a problem solver, first. If I can't solve the problem I become a brooder and dwell on it until I either crack or have a breakthrough. Apparently, I'm also a human dictionary and reservoir of pointless information, according to my friends and family.

Edited by Doodling Hitman: 1/16/2014 8:05:17 PMI am someone who games a lot and I really want to become successful in drawing because I love it! :D I define myself as a gamer and drawing artist. :3 PS: If you say drawing artist.. does that mean you're very good at it? Because I just thought that's how people call themself if they draw. I don't draw well.. yet.. But is drawing artist the correct way of saying that you are a drawer?
