It can't be all about up-bringing because even within my family we all have very different personalities...and if you think about it if it were upbringing then one murderer in a family would make them all murderers, one genius would mean they are all geniuses.
It can't be up to situations and the outside world (aside from our family) because there will always be people with a similar personality to you that haven't experienced the same things you have.
So who or what decides that one person will be loud and talkative while someone else will be shy? Even babies have personalities, some are happy and quiet, some are sociable some are not. WHERE do these personalities come from? Some think that there is DNA that links up with personality traits, but it's really just theoretical (e.g people with a certain DNA will have a propensity towards violence, adventure...but then again the same people were bouncing around the idea of a 'gay gene' years ago...)
So what makes everyone who they are...who they naturally are?

Rhona, you are spooking me out. Big time. That entry looks like it has been lifted straight out of my own personal journal.
Why am I the way I am? What makes the goals that I achieve so different to others? Are they any more important? Why am I unsettled and others not?
What makes me... me?
it may be one of those psychological mysteries.
