Becoming Who You Are

Continuing the theme of vocation and discovering your identity, Parker Palmer writes about the theme of 'becoming who you are'.  He suggests that vocation is more about understanding yourself rather than hearing a call towards a career path.  Here is a link to the portion we read (stop at the section 'journey into darkness').  Based on your reading, our discussions in class during the first week of the semester...  Share your reflections in 2 paragraphs.  Parker challenges some of our assumptions about success and determining your vocation in life- it is more about becoming who you already are, and asking the question: "Who am I"? instead of "Who should I be"?  How does this compare with your understanding of vocation and success?  Do you agree/disagree/understand his assertions?  Deep thoughts! :)
