Day One: Who Are You

  First day and I'm already struggling with this question. So what did I do? What I usually do when I can't figure out the answer. I googled it and read few people's opinion on how to answer this. I also had song lyrics pop into my head. (Imagine that). Anyways the blog I am referring to is: http://thedailylove.com/how-to-really-answer-the-question-who-are-you-new-blog/.

 
She states that we all label ourselves with this question. We are not labels though. Do we even know what we are? I don't know the answer to that either. So my answer to this question is all labels that I have labeled myself and that others have. 

 First off, I am Tanith. In that "label" I am many labels. I'm human. I age January 8th of every year and have since 1995. Which means my age at the moment is eighteen. I am 5'6 tall and my weight at the moment is 112.3. I am as the Indians would say pale skinned. Like ghostly pale. I have blue eyes. I am naturally strawberry blonde ,but I like the color black better. I am a thinker. I like the question why. I am emo? I am always anxious. I have been told I am shy. I am bright. I am lost within my head. I am crazy. I am quiet. I am goth. I am creative. I am sneaky. I am greedy. I am humble. I am selfless. 

  In everyday life I am a daughter. I am a sister. I am almost a mom. (No I am not pregnant, but I love children. I play the mom role when needed.) I am a cousin. I am a niece. I am granddaughter. I am loving. I am a girlfriend. I am a writer. I am a musician. I am a singer. I am random. I am contradiction. I am confusing. I am straight forward. I am a realist. I am an idealist. I am a stranger. I am a friend. I am an enemy. I am religious. I am not religious. I am emotionally declined. I am open. I am a closed book. I am pretty. I am ugly. 

  All these things describe me. I am me. You are you. You are an individual. We are the perspective of society.  Maybe you can answer the questions I can't. If you can please comment. 

  The lyrics I was referring to is Whore by In This Moment. Now the title seems vulgar and it is, but there is a verse that always catches my attention. "Now that you’re hooked, it’s all becoming clear.
That all your judgments that you placed on me was a reflection of discovery. So maybe next time when you cast your stones from the shadows of the dark unknown You will crawl up from your hiding place
Take a look in the mirror
See the truth in your face!" 

  Anyways I'm done now
