Are you really defined by who you are?

Well. This question, a barely easy one to be asked , faces its complexity only when faced or in other words, answered. There is a clean difference between the questions posed to you and the questions that you pose to yourself. In fact in many cases they might be a same question, but would differ in the angle in which it is approached. One such example is the homespun statement "What is the definition of you?". From this article I don't intend to derive a periphrasis, but what I want to clearly convey through this is that are all of us defined by the way we are , when questioned to ourselves?, literally meaning that can you still stay independent and defined by yourself when in a troglodytic situation, not accompanied by your clan?. Well, that surely demands a lot of courage and confidence. 
                                           To most of us ( inclusive of me), a normal day like any other one would not surpass without roaming with our own folks. It is a human tendency to get along in groups the minute you are free. Just recollect the instances such as in school and college, where the moment we know we are put to no work, we gather in groups ( here I mean more than one itself as a group). This surrounding groupism not only ends with the free time but also continues beyond thoughts. There occurs few times where you may always be surrounded by your own sweet friends , pampered and praised by few of them, having the out of the world kind of fun that you would never have had in life. That moment may make you feel that you have got the best of the best that any could deserve. Imagining such a situation itself gives you the sheer happiness and that furore. In fact you could go to that extreme level where you cannot stay a second without your group and sometimes letting them occupy the prominent part of your life.These things would undoubtedly drive you to give that instant reply to the previously stated question- I am defined by my friends or the dear ones I have.Even a minute without them might make you weak and lonely.
                                           Okay. Now coming to the real essence of this article, I am not mentioning this to put down that spirit in you, nor do I state this to invoke that sarcasm about the ones who accompany you. In a real world situation, when you are alone, all alone with no one to stay with you, would you still define yourself with that above stated reply? What I really intend to convey is that always situations do not butter up smoothly. There might be situations in life where you are really facing it in solitary. So it is high time that each one of us should be defined by who really we are, by our potential, by our confidence, by our aims , in other words by our degree of independence. It is always healthy to spend time alone for it might tell you how to be alone and face life individually rather than  defined by another person. Learn to handle things your way, for you may not always be surrounded by the people speaking your opinions and taking your decisions and don't ever let that too.
Now have you realized to which category you belong? If so act promptly by just considering this article  as a sign of a healthy tip for a good life.
