As I scale down my "professional" life, I am learning to deal with the transient identity it gave. God is teaching me more about true self-esteem through this post by Joyful Heart on "Who Am I?"
One day, all of us will have to go through the same process, as one day all of us will retire.
Professional identity is transient.
In fact, all identities in life are transient (even our identity as a mom, that I am scaling up now, will all come to pass). We should be thankful for them, but they should not define us. I am glad that I am learning to deal with it now.
I see that also in Mr. Lee Kuan Yew, our respected ex-Prime Minister of Singapore, who is going through it right now and I feel for him. My heart goes out to him.
