This is a self-reflection on identity. Who are we truly? Are you living your life as an eternal soul or are you living your life based on your "roles" in society, based on your name and the identity of who you think you are. Music by Tom Evans

I am with a capital I am versus I am with a lowercase I am.

So who are you truly?

The capital I am screaming from the rooftops?

The capital in control?

Or the little I am allowing spirit to guide you aware of your divinity and where your ego is fully dissolved?

Some believe that your name in capitals is your ownership by the government.

Your true identity is not your name,

Your birth certificate.

Your true identity is your eternal soul,

The I am presence.

I am never alone.

I am spirit.

I am infinite.

I am love.

Living a life of integrity,

Living a life of beingness,

Of presence,

Of peace.

Not one that judges,

Stigmatizes,

Criticizes.

I am done with capitalization,

The masculinization,

The indignation.

I am done with the rules,

The lies,

The facades,

The capital I's.

If we are all one then let me be.

Let me be my sovereign soulful self.

Uncapitalized,

Undone from the man-made constructs of the matrix.

I am done with control.

I am done with my capital name.

I am a soul,

A spark of creation.

As are you.

I am worthy of sovereignty.

I hope you've enjoyed that and I would love to hear any reflections you have on this.

Thank you for listening and feel free to follow me here on Insight Timer and listen to some of my other free content.

Bye for now.
