Who am I? That's a question we ask ourselves. Who are you? That's a question others ask us?

Sometimes we answer simply with a name - Wayne. But other times we seek to give a little insight into the "Who am I?' question. Actualy the questions are not unrelated. We tend to answer the question 'who are you?' with a little of the 'who am I?'. But usually we answer with more basic information. Such things as family line or ethnicity or vocation or relationship.

Let's begin. My name is Wayne. A name chosen by my mother because she liked it. Thanks Mom because I like it too.
I bear another name - Conrad. That's a family name. I'm an offspring of a man whose sir name - family line- name is Conrad. So I'm the son of a Conrad.
I have a middle name whic is the first name of my father. For now I'll not reveal it.

What race am I? You know filling out forms that ask this question can be difficult. There is no space for the real answer. Shall I mark "white", Causaian? Shall I mark 'Cherokee" - forget that it is never listed. Let's tried 'native american" - that's not usually there. Is there a line for mixed? When I look into the 'white'- which line of descent shall I choose? English? Scot? German? Unknown? And what percentage of each? Thank God that question is not usually ask!
Enough musing for today. Let me have my second cup of fresh coffee.
