I am you, you are me

I saw a video last night on my social media posted about taking a stand against racism through covid-19.

I shared it with these lines one family, one world, one humanity.

I saw it again in my professional network and shared it again with the same lines one family, one world, one humanity.

It got me thinking, so I wrote a post on it straight to my professional network and I thought stuff it. I don’t care if this is the professional network. I’m going to say what I need to say.

I also got to wondering if we are a world that embraces inclusion and diversity, then it’s a start for me to overcome some concern over sharing who I really am in the world on my professional networks!

Hence why I have also held back on this platform for fear of something, being judged, being assessed by others? Do you have a fear of sharing yourself? Or is the fear that you’re afraid of how big your responsibility will become when you have a voice? My brother and I discussed this. Is it that we’re shy? Or is it that we have so much to say and we will be bigger than we know ourselves to be and are we prepared for that?

Well I say, just do it. We live on this earth for such a short period of time. I imagine if one thing I say makes a difference to one other human being then I am happy and my life is fulfilled anyway because I’m being my true self wholeheartedly sharing of myself.

So here is my original post:

I’m going to say what I believe inclusion and diversity to be at a very real simple level. It starts with your own family - accepting them for who they are and who they aren’t. Your extended family - accepting them for who they are and who they aren’t. Now controversially, it’s also about accepting all of who you are - everything you are and everything you are not. When you accept yourself wholeheartedly - you will start to see that the human experience while diverse is also one experience. When you really let that land on you - I am you, you are me. So why would I want to harm/hurt myself? If I do, the only reason can be that I don’t love myself or enough? So my pledge is to love all human beings always and another way of saying that is inclusion and diversity. You’d freak out if I said I love you but I genuinely love all people and all human beings. My stand is that you start loving all the parts of yourself. The world will change because you do.

    Hi my name is Angela. I have loved writing since I was able to hold a pencil in my hand. I soon learnt I had a gift of connecting with my ancestors through writing before my 30th birthday.

    I self published a book (A family of shopkeepers - via blurb) about my ancestry, the result of a project to unite family here and gone through their memories and stories of my ancestors. It is hard to explain but I felt their presence through this journey and I continue to.

    In Feb 2020, I found this online business learning platform through my mum. With her never-ending guidance and support, I discovered more of my purpose in life.

    Everything I wanted was inside of me the whole time. I just needed someone to point the microscope at me and tell me the gold is within and create the context for me through the learning platform, through the collaborative community, through mentorship, guidance, coaching and transparent leadership.

    The reason I share is because part of my finding myself was also realising I see the gold in others. And in seeing the gold in others I have the capacity to empower others to discover what they want for themselves and their lives.

    If you want to find out more about the learning platform that can do the same for you, just reach out at one or any of the links.

    ​I was looking for mentorship and personal growth and I found it in an unlikely place called "building an online business from scratch."
