People are who we are. No one should be something that they aren’t.

We are who we are
Many, many things
Make us who we are
There are people
There are also events
Who make us who we are
Whether it’s a glance
Having a great relationship
A long time friend
Maybe it’s a fling
But they play parts
Even family trauma
Everything makes us
Who we are

    Yes, true, someone recently was saying we should forget the past, but the past is a significant component of who we are. Brian
