Every day we are influenced by the people and things around us, as Maureen O'Hara has said in the quote "We craft ourselves drawing from the experiences we have, the views others have, the symbols, values, stories and patterns of life of our community. Who we become emerges in a conversation between our biological limits and our interactional experiences in specific relationships."
