Journal #29: SELF

Self. There are three main components of my transcendental self. Part number one includes the spiritual self. My spiritual self involves the Christian faith. Because I attend a Christian Church with my family, I have grown up going to church and learning about the Christian religion. I believe that Jesus is the Christ, the son of the living God, and he is my Lord and Savior. I think that this is a really big part of myself because I try to do everything that God would want me to do. The second part of self is my personality. My personality is rather outgoing and cheerful. I try to make the best out of ever situation despite the sadness it might bring along. I perceive myself as being a very nice individual and helping others as much as possible. I try to always be positive in all situations and I think that allows me to be good at my job. I work at PASSAGE, the after school daycare program at elementary  school. I think that I am good at this job because there is a certain quality you need. I love children and I am really good at dealing with all of the crap they come up with. The real me is just what you see when you talk to me. I have not completely figured out why I am here or who I really am. I think that as of right now I am here on the Earth to be a good person, a follower of God, and eventually go into medicine so I can help others. I feel like my "real self" includes just the qualities that make me up. With me, what you see is what you get. I think that some people try to hied their real self and be somebody they really are not. This is a very common thing in High School I think because they want to be popular and fit in. Even if I do not fit it as well as I would like, I really try to be myself in everything I do.
