Movie Quotes: Difficulties – Part 1

The Quote:
"What is more difficult? Being a woman or being a man? It’s hard being a man, and it’s difficult being a woman. But the most difficult thing is trying not to forget who you really want to be?"
For me, this quote gets at the core of what is challenging for all us humans when we unavoidably measure each other’s gender differences. The difficulties for women and men are certainly different. Yet the heart of the matter for me is focusing on who it is as a person I am trying to become. Even more so, transcending gender altogether, who am I "wanting" to be in Christ?

Comments
it's easy to lose sight of 'who you want to become' and may not always be the same as'who I am trying to be'.
It's easy to fall into into the trap of trying to imitate others bacuse we like how they act or look.
This is when it is crucial to go back to God and ask to be reminded who it is we really want to become.
