Here is a personal example response, exploring how my identity was shaped by these factors:
Relationship to the land is the most important contributor to who I became. My identity was formed by where I spent a lot of my time growing up. My relationship to the land is spiritual for me; I feel at peace and full out in the bush. I grew up in the country in Slave Lake on an acreage. I spent a lot of my time quadding, boating, camping, hanging at the beach and I love fishing. Being outside is kind of my church. Having a close relationship with the land has allowed me to shut off the world and just be with myself. Going quadding alone has taught me to be a good problem solver and be ok with being alone. Fishing has shown me that I have the skills to survive if I had to, and builds my confidence. Being at the beach reminds me of my childhood memories and forces me to relax and take the time to reflect. Without a relationship with the land, I would not be who I am today.
(This is a suggested format. You can include 1-3 factors from the readings).
