In retrospect, we are different from what we are 10 years ago and what we are in present.

Which convince
me with that long period of time, we knew one fourth of ourselves (i.e., how we behave, think, respond,
and act) and how we are going to answer the question “Who am I?”. Now, let me ask you once again,
“who are you?” and answer me without telling me what is your name but by telling me how you are
different from other people. I am certain that in answering that question, you might be bewilder, reluctant

judge our classmates, neighbors, teachers and the like, I know we can judge our self too. We can observe
how we think, how we analyze ideas and how we reason and make excuses, how we decide and how we
act morally right or not. This observation serves as our awareness of ourself. And thanks to psychologist,
sociologist, neurologist and the like, for giving us understanding, idea and explanation why and how
could this happened. Namely, William James, Murray Bowen, Karn Horney, David Lester, Albert
bandura and etc.

Those mentioned great people,

In my opinion, the ideologies and theories posit by the great people in their respective discipline are all
right. If there are argumentative insights in their theories, I think it is th
