REMEMBER YOUR NAME!

Every day that you wake up, remember your name. As you walk out the door, remember your name. Everywhere you go, remember your name. Remembering your name is remembering who you are, where you came from, who you want to be and what you're here for. What you're here to do in this world, in this one life. These three words have been quietly speaking to me for a little while now, For a number of years I've been writing, writing pages of thought-provoking content that just out of nowhere, come through me. I'm a big contemplator of life & I love to share this. It was a challenge at the start to share my musings, but over time I've grown comfortable with a good part it...yet I've been holding back...and this is where I've been sitting for a quite some time. The last month or so, I've been tinkering with the idea of sharing my musings, my podcast, my innate wisdom under another name, the name of my podcast 'The Art of RAW, WILD & FREE...a name I love, it sums up how I feel and how I want to feel even more so...it's how I wish for all humans on this earth to feel. BUT... my reason to want to work under that name was to hide...hide a part of me. To not let myself fully be seen for who I am. There was this part of me that wanted more privacy for my personal name. Every time I think about hiding under that name, I get pulled back to these words 'Remember Your Name' And now for the real honest raw reason...to hide behind another name, so that Men can't see who I really am. That if I share what I share, and more of what I wish to share, then the likely hood of finding a good honest partner get's slimmer. Gotta love the stories we create for ourselves hey. The part of me that many call deep, The part of me that has a lot too say, The part of me that seems emotional, The part of me that goes against the so called grain, a little rebellious at times, The part of me that shares too much...words & images of self. Yes I've heard it all (in person & messages)...like it's a bad thing, like I should quieten down a little, share less. However this is just a part of me...it's not all of me, far from it. AND SO...I've decided to 'Remember my name' (no hiding behind another name) as of yesterday after a conversation with my 12 year old daughter who asked a straight forward question. A question that I could only answer in one way...To be so honest with yourself, trust yourself and what you want and need, be all of yourself, to not hide yourself, dim any part of you for anyone. To stand tall, to not adjust yourself just to make another comfortable. When you be your so called weird, wacky self, you will find those who want to be weird & wacky with you...that's living. Yes I was answering her question, but I was also answering my own. We all have a part of us that's afraid to show up as it really wants to, but by doing so we're only really hiding from ourselves, what's in front of us to go after. You've got to let yourself be ALL parts of you. What we see in others, is just a part of them...a small part of them...there is soooo much more....so remember that for yourself also. Let people know you just the way you are...say no to moulding any part of you to be liked & accepted. Being who we truly wish to be, isn't always easy. But it's so vital. I know my reason for why I do what I do, my life experiences didn't just happen to me, it happened so I could pay it forward, so I could come from an honest understanding rather than a textbook. I'm here because I want more for you and me. I want you and all the generations that follow, to live RAW, WILD & FREE - an aligned life and so I better damn well make sure I'm doing just that myself on all levels hey. Every day that you wake up - Remember your name! (it's time to stop hiding)
