So does that mean when I complain about it that – that represents me?  Does that define me?  I read the line from a blog that I follow.  I won’t write on here which one, but I’ll tell you if you really want to know – @Lemness or e mail me – lem@lemusita.com.

I think the better line is that you define a part of yourself by the work that you do.  You are also defined by a bunch of other thing that are outside of your control:

Who your parents are.

What order you are in your family.

Where you grew up.

Why your parents divorced.

Your conditioning as a kid.

The stuff that was projected on to you when you were growing up.

You are defined by the work that you do, but not completely.  Sometimes you are defined by what you don’t do as well – you lazy person you.

You are defined by things in your control (the work that you do) and by many other things that you cannot control (the work that is done to you).
