Wallet Who?

Walking around a well known store just browsing the aisles it is now time to leave. I head to the checkout. I reach into the cart to grab my wallet only to realize it is no longer there! What could have happened? I can only assume that my then 1 year old son decided to drop the wallet out of the cart when the novelty of its pretty red color wore off. Panic immediately starts to set in. I run around the store, up and down the aisles, trying to locate the lost wallet. In a last ditch effort I check in at customer service hoping some good Samaritan happened by the wallet and turned it in. What instant relief I felt when I find out that indeed I was lucky enough to have my wallet returned with all contents intact.
When this person found my wallet did they turn it in immediately or did they rummage through to find who it belonged to? I wonder what impression they would have of me from the contents of my wallet. I am now examining my wallet, trying to see it through the eyes of a stranger. It is a well worn red wallet with a kanji symbol on the front of it. Is this person of Japanese descent? Opening up the wallet it is easy to see that this is not the case. A military dependent ID card is the first item up for inspection. It is a woman's wallet, she is obviously married. Looking at her picture she is a Caucasian woman and judging from her last name she might be married to a Hispanic man. My driver's license would confirm my age to be 26.
The next sleeve contains my Everett Community College tuition waiver card for military veterans. From this they would be able to see that I served in the military myself and that I must be a student. Other items my wallet contains are a Petsmart card, library card, and a video card. She must like movies, pets, and books. The next thing up for inspection would be my debit and credit card. Only one credit card? So maybe she is debt conscious or maybe she has such bad credit that she does not qualify for any other cards. Then there is the CPR and First Aid cards. Okay, then maybe she has something to do with the medical field. The last contents of the wallet would be a series of pictures. The first one a younger picture of the girl in the ID cards standing with a hispanic male, probably her husband. The next picture is the same couple but in wedding attire. So definitely her husband. After this photo is one that contains the same said couple, but with an added child, so now they are parents. The last picture to see is the same couple, with the child again, but older, and now there is another child.
What does my wallet say about me? A stranger would deduce that I am a 26 year old female, married, with two children. They would also see that my husband is in the military, that I used to be, and that I am currently a student. The other things they could assume is that I love books, movies, and animals. All of these are accurate but they do not sum up everything about who I am. Things they would not be able to see about me is that I love video games, camping, fishing, swimming, hiking, sports, painting, and even writing poems from time to time. I am emotional, lovable, funny, and friendly. Looking at the contents of my wallet may give you a general outline of who I am but it does not tell everything about me. Yes, I am my wallet, but I am also so much more.
