Also, so many of you have asked me in class, "What do you mean by personal identity?" Remember back to our discussion on what makes a person's identity as well as when you created your personal identity visuals and wrote your personal identity essay. If that still leaves you stumped, here are a few definitions that I liked that I found on the web:
- identity: the distinct personality of an individual regarded as a persisting entity; "you can lose your identity when you join the army"

- identity: The collective aspect of the set of characteristics by which a thing is definitively recognizable or known
- The set of behavioral or personal characteristics by which an individual is recognizable as a member of a group.
- The distinct personality of an individual regarded as a persisting entity; individuality. http://www.answers.com/topic/identity?cat=health
You do not have to write a long summary. A paragraph is fine for this entry. You should concentrate on the personal response and the literary appreciation sections of your reading log. The personal response should be at least two paragraphs long. The literary appreciation section should fully explain the quote, what it means to you, and why you liked the phrase you selected. Remember to cite the page number the quote comes from!
