Know Who You Are (Wafrica Guest Post)

in #wafrica6 years ago

A lot of people don't know who they are.

They don't know their worth and so, they carry on with life so carelessly, living below par....living like the sheep 🐑 when they're supposed to be a lion. 🦁

I remember a story of a young lion who happened to find himself in the midst of sheeps. 🐑

He grew up with them
Ate like them
Played like them
And most of all, feared 😱 what they feared.

Whenever a lion shows up in the midst of the sheeps, they all fled for protection.
And this lion sheep also fled along with the sheep away from the big lion.
This continued on and on until one day when they were at the stream drinking water. 💧
This young lion could see a reflection of himself in the water.

He saw that he looked different from the other sheeps and looked exactly like the big lion he always fled from.
Immediately, he knew that wasn't his place.
He discovered purpose.

When next the big lion came around, all other sheeps fled off, seeking cover but he remained still and was warmly welcomed and received by the big lion into the lion kingdom. 😂 He started living like a real lion when he discovered purpose, his real self and purpose.
Until you discover your true identity, you keep living like the sheep who lost his identity.
You still run away from problems you should solve because you're yet to discover yourself.

When you discover the real YOU, you'll be in charge of all dreadful challenges.

Wow.. Really, when we don't know who we are yet, thats when boldness will be far from us and we wont be able to do the things we can do. We wont even know we can do those things until we discover ourselves. Weldone @julietisrael and @wafrica

many thanks for your add sweety

Exactly, you are right dear... Thanks much for stopping by

What a beautiful story! Truly, one needs to know who he or she is to really thrive in life, and not just to exist.
Thanks for sharing.
Kind regards.

good to see you today too

True, to thrive, you need to know who you are....

This is super deep! Thanks. We all need to find our purpose

thats rightfully said bro

Self discovery is very very important , I assume people who are yet to discover themselves are living by someone else dream and doing someone else job , this set of people find it very hard making it but when you discover yourself even when you feel you cant do it, the zeal and moral will definitely come and the chances of getting to the top is high and certain.

You need to know who you truly are to be able to live life here and there.thanks for adding more guys

I agree with you, they are living someone else's dream.
Thanks for stopping by today

we purposely need to discover our presence in this life we live in.Thats the best way to know who we really are.In order to command a sense of respect for our existence as humans..thanks for the delivery @julietisrael and good to have you in the family of Wafrica. You guys really rock
