Hello My Name Is

You don't have a soul.  You are a Soul.  You have a body.  

~C.S. Lewis

Hello My Name Is
Most of us run around every day trying to complete tasks, check off our to-do-list or strive for goals that we set for ourselves.  We are on autopilot because we know that and it's comfortable.  But why are we striving for all of these "things".  Is it because we want them or because society or family/friends tell us we should want them?  Why are we pursuing these dreams and goals - what are we really looking for?  Have we ever stopped to ask ourselves the bigger question - who are we?  

See, if you know who you are, the rest will follow.  When you flip it the other way around, you will always be searching for "something" because anything you obtain will not feel like it's filling the hole you feel in your gut.  You have to fill the hole by feeling whole.  The only way to do that is to do the work!  Get to know who you are; all of your likes, dislikes, strengths, weaknesses, beliefs and values. What makes you, well you?  You are more than just a name.  You are more than just a career.  You are more than the person taking up space in a classroom.  You are more than your job.  Take that all away and you are still you!  Get grounded in who you truly are and watch your dreams become focused and doorways open up.

As Mufasa said in the Lion King to Simba, … remember who you are.
