Have you ever paused to think about why people call you that name you've always responded to all this your life ?
This truth dawned on me on the 2nd of January this new year. It struck me with such an awe too wonderful for me to put into words.

Name is an entity attached to something for the purpose of self-recognition, the values it embodies and the strong meaning it convenes.
In truth we may trivialise this, but it stands as the most prominent thing we're tied to as long as we live. It's very surprising and beautiful that most of us already have special and unique names but we've failed to attribute the true meanings each name can bring into our lives.
We name our kids and people also call us by those names we've been named by our parents and so everything in our lives revolves around the names we're being called.
Knowing the meaning of your name can change and transform your life completely. It can even help you to sustain the change as long as you live.
And this knowledge of course... _has changed mine already _. I can tell you since I gained this new insight, everything virtually about me has become new...absolutely new and that's why I'm sharing this with you.

I would like you to join me in the next few weeks as we're gonna dig deep into the meaning of our names, the uniqueness each name symbolizes , the purpose and the drive it can give to our goals in life.
I'm creating this as a means we can explore in redefining ourselves in a better way and to live out the most hidden truth of life. In our world today, I believe we can change our perspectives and others too in the way we view people calling our names and the message it convenes.
