Embrace Individualism
So OK. There’s no feature article this month but I do need your help, dear readers, for some input for an article in next month’s issue themed ‘Embrace Individualism’.
All I want you to do is email me an answer to this question:
How do you define yourself?
Simple question, and perhaps not an easy one to answer. It’s not a trick question, mind you. There is no right or wrong to it. Just give me your honest answer of how you define yourself, who are you and all. This is one question you have to ask yourself without any influence from others. I want to know what you think of you. Be honest.
Email me your answer to phinmag AT gmail DOT com. Dateline is on May 31, 2006.
Please include your first name/surname/pseudonym to go along with your answer. Your email and website URL are not required for the article.
Thanks a bunch!

So far only one person emailed me an input on the question - and a lengthy one as well with thoughts on individualism and answering the question. but one is not enough.
and this is why i’m extending the deadline to June 25. The other reason is that there’s a high chance the June issue might not be out because I’m too busy to compile the content in time for publication. I haven’t done anything yet, really.
Anyway for those finding it difficult to answer this question, try this: Go stand in front of a mirror and really look at yourself - not just outward but inwardly too. What do you ’see’? Don’t analyze too much. Just ask yourself “How do I define me?” or “Who am I?”. What makes you you? What’s the first thing that pops into your mind? It doesn’t have to be something so profound or philosophical. The only important thing is that you have to be honest. Think of it as answering the question for yourself.

I’ll try your suggestion.
Only one submission? I’ll try to help and plug this in my blog.
