No one should define who you are. You know it for yourself that you're a free being. And now with a social media platform like Steemit, I sure hope the sense of building stuff together will transcend borders, race, and religion.

Very well said! I agree on the heritage part. I also think that if you have been living somewhere and have adapted to being that person, the heritage is the only thing that remains of your past really. I think I also hear the phrase "my heritage is ..." in movies and tv shows.

Great post!
