My wallet contains much of the usual stuff like my drivers license, bankcards, health club membership, discount cards, and family photos. Aside from the basics, it is also stuffed with reciepts, business cards, old ticket stubs to movies and my kids sporting events, and even id and health insurance cards from the job I was laid off from about a year ago.
Others might assume that I am totally unorganized, messy, and even a packrat based on my wallets contents. They may also assume that I am family oriented, and very supportive and involved in the lives of my kids.
If all people had to go on is my wallet, they would be unable to know that aside from my messy wallet, I am a pretty organized person. They also would not know that many of the things I keep in my wallet are momentos of good things, or good times in my life at one time or another. For instance, my old job id reminds me that I have always been more than a mother and wife. It reminds me that I am a strong, independent woman who has worked hard to help take care of a home, as well as raise and support my family. It shows that even if i'm going through a tough time, I am strong enough, and determined enough to work hard to make my situation a better one. People would be unable to know this is what brought me back to college.
