Your Choice! by Tiona Gunthorpe Pdf

What do you think shapes our identity? Is it your family? Your environment? Your peers / friends? Your mind? As you read through this book, different characters will be introduced to you in which everyone are unique individuals but at the same time are influenced largely from other entities outside of themselves. Family on the other hand serves as a foundation for some. But think about your best friend or your boyfriend / girlfriend. Think about the relationship itself that makes a person fulfill such titles as: best friend, boyfriend / girlfriend. The choices we make and the way we deal with things has a lot to do with our individual experiences as well as what we have learned from the people around us. If one is unsuccessful with a stage, even if one moves on to the next stage, they will still have to at some point address and successfully complete that stage. If not it may effect how an individual passes effectively through the next stages.
