Self, an evolving door offering us an opportunity to let go, grow. An exploration of selfs capability.
As young minds, we are curious about who we are and why we are here. An identity, critical for maintaining a solid sense of self.
Thought leaders have long written about the need to have a unique identity. The glue that holds self together, even in the most confusing of circumstances.
Each of us is unique in how we express our emotions, the way we are viewed in terms of personal style, character, passions, strengths, and vulnerabilities.
When we can be comfortable in our own skin is when we are most adaptable.
Conversely, when there’s a deep question about our personal identity, we experience and convey uncertainty, inconsistency and a kind of hesitancy. Internally, we feel like frauds, empty shells that worry constantly about what others think of us.
UNGUBANI?! a question as old as time, even our ancestors journeyed along this path. Sharing thier lessons with younger minds through proverbs aimed to nuture and assure self.
“indela ibuzwa kwabaphambili”
meaning seek guidance and direction from the ones ahead of you. For us to fully delve into who we are we need to start at the beginning.
Events in the past tell tales of families and groups, the makeup of regions, cultures and tensions. Such events have also created government systems that have lasted generations beyond when they started. And all of it affects each of us today and generations to come.
Share in the experience and learn as we dive deeper into the journey of self-inner-standing and growth.
