I wonder too, about who i am sometimes. I agree with you phoenix that attitude is everything. the problem is attaining the right attitude. Sometimes it is just so elusive.
About losing ones identity I look back at who i was young, healthy and then who i am now and all the “people” i was in between and wonder is it that I have lost my identity, or is it I have changed and do not recognize the new me? I dont think there is one of us who looks back at a younger happier self and want to be that person again. and our attitude and who we were back then ARE different than the 'who" we are now. I think maybe the “want” for the old self keeps us from seeing the “new” self we are now.
