The result of actions. Is that the depth of the universe? Consciousness - that is the beginning of actions. Will, and act of will. God took our consciousnesses and gave us the gift of a body, but first with that . . . he gave us the choice, the first act of will. He gave us, us.
Here let me explain with 2 really good quotes.
First - Batman (yeah I know . . . just read it anyway) then Harry Potter (words are wisdom not characters by the way.) :)
" . . . It's not who you are underneath, it's what you do that defines you." - Rachel Dawes
"It is our choices . . . that show what we truly are, far more than our abilities." - Professor Dumbledore
So, our actions determine who we are. Ultimately we ourselves cannot escape that cinch. We can work against our thoughts and our beliefs but our mind is still moving and making decisions as to whether it is right or wrong. Like Dumbledore said, we may have the ability to choose one way - but our choices that we act upon . . . those are the moments that truly define us.
We define ourselves.
