Worth A Thousand Words (Blog #5)

I believe this picture represents the thematic motif of identity in more ways than one. A lot of times we attempt to figure out who we are based on other people’s opinion, but when we are alone we can’t find the right words. We try to think of one word but we fail to realize that who we are is not based off of any words or anyone else’s opinion. I chose this picture because everyone has been in a similar position at one point in their life, including myself. You might not have taped a couple of poorly painted words and a question mark to the wall and stare at them needlessly. However, this really represents the time you need to yourself to figure out who you are as person, not the image other people perceive of you. As time goes on, and maturity starts to progress, you eventually will find that identity that is truly who you are. Esperanza dealt with all of these challenges and began to learn this, just as we do. What you do with your identity and abilities after you discover them, becomes entirely up to you.
