"Who Am I?"

People answer on a vast spectrum to the question "Who am I?" Today, students in English 191 were asked this question. Upon further research of their answers it is apparent that people write almost in three different categories of their lives. Overall you may argue that there are three specific parts of an individual; physical, cognitive, and emotional. However, each person seems to concentrate on one of these specifically. In this sense I use physical to describe external things that could be touched or documented. Such as a name, schedule, location, or education.  Cognitive relates to things a person may think or feel but cannot be seen. These may be cognitive processing differences, personality dynamics, goals and hobbies, dreams, or even taste preferences. I used emotion to define both emotional qualities, and social interactions. Examples given were culture, background, religion, childhood, interactions, and experiences. When all parts are added together each individual writes a story about who they believe they are.
