Why are people who they are?

Because they aren't someone else. However, it is unknown, scientifically, why it is that you feel like you and have control of the life which you do. If you believe in religion, you could say it is your soul that makes you who you are. If you mean more in terms of personality or behavior, then that is a combination of factors. It is a combination of nature, nurture, chance, and choice. Nature is how you were born and "wired" in the brain. Nurture refers to upbringing and formative experiences. By chance, I mean either in terms of what happens to you, or what others allow you to do. For instance, you could be a brilliant songwriter and musician, but if you are never given a break, you will never become famous. Then there are choices and consequences.
