Who do men say I am? Jesus asked his
disciples this question. This is the
question you may want answered about
yourself. How to handle the answer.
Who is right when speaking and writing about me?
I hear and read the opinions others have about me,
partricularly how they describe me. Using the
names "Uriah," "U. J,," "Jay" and "Fields," names
I have used to introduce myself, they speak and
write mostly positively about me. And that is well,
since I tend to "accentuate" the positive" and
forget the negative things people say about me
which are few in comparison to the positive
ones. These are the things they say and write
about me:
He is unique, courageous,
intelligent, compassionate,
a gentleman, a writer,
a singer, fair-minded,
a mystery, a man of his
word, has integrity, happy.
Reflecting on these things, I ask myself "How
can I be all these things?" The answer I receive
from my spirit is: "Be yourself." Do it without
having any regard as to what other people
think about you are expect of you. In practice
the answer is expressed in "I've Go to Be Me."
I've got to be me
Whenever
Wherever
However... I've got to be me
Accepted
Rejected
ignored...
I've got to be me
Happy days
Hard times
Between and betwixt
I've got to be me
Born to be me
Living being me
I'll die being me
I've go to be me.
I was thinking of the song, "Got to Be Me," as I read this. We all have to be ourselves and love ourselves to move on in this world. It's a lesson everyone should learn early.
