The cartoon character Popeye responded to critics with “I am what I am”.
And while this phrase can be used to excuse all sorts of bad behavior, there is a ring of truth to it.
Every one of us is the sum of our experiences. Each of us is hemmed in by what we know and how we are made.
We are more than the things that happen to us.
But, in part, we are Defined by Moments.
