Who Am I? Who are you?

Came cross this quote from Thomas Merton this morning, stopped me cold in my track:

If you want to identify me, 
ask me 
not where I live, 
or what I like to eat, 
or how I comb my hair, 
but ask me what I think I am living for, in detail, 
and ask me what I think is keeping me from living fully for the thing I want to live for. 
Between these two answers you can determine the identity of any person.   

How would you answer these two questions?
