I Am Who I Am

I am who I am because I was born to be who I am. Changing who I am won't make me who I want to be.

I used to stand in front of a mirror, asking questions with no answers: "Why did God make me who I am?" Gradually, as I grow, I tell myself God made me who I am for his own reasons, and I thank him for making me who I am. Today, I'm proud of who I am because of him.
