searching for my own culture

OK, I know it has been awhile since our trip but I am still working through my own cultural identity. I asked this question during the trip at the drug and alcohol center we visited but I am opening it up for all to answer. While studying another culture it has been said you understand yours better but I am still struggling on what my culture looks like. I hope ya all can help me out. I admire the culture of the first nations people of the plains, as the director said at the drug and alcohol center, we have the tools or keys in place, we just need the people to take action in their families. How is our culture the same as the first nations people we studied? The one question that I struggle with the most is, What does my own European/American culture it look like? Where is my place within this culture? Does our culture have the keys in place to help our people? I am still learning and deciphering what happen, I pray for the spirit to help me in understanding and I will take any input from anyone who wishes to answer.
