A Repeating Trend of Reinvention.
So, I had this pointed out to me earlier, and I thought I would write about it, because it’s completely true.
Every live I’ve lived has involved one similar theme. Reinvention. Namely, the dropping of one identity that was forced on me, and adopting a new one that suits me better. One I chose and actually feel represents me.
When I was Gracia, I was a princess. I was to follow in Father’s footsteps. I refused, ran away and invented the new persona of Naga the Serpent, Dark sorceress. I did what I wanted and I followed my own creed as I developed it.
When I was Pink Diamond. I was a Diamond of the Diamond Authority. Destroying countless worlds for the good of our kind and our power. I realized how terrible it all was, and took the identity and appearance of a quartz. I started a revolution based around freedom of choice. To be who you are instead of who you are told to be.
When I was Meenah, I wanted to be a ruler. but they told me that a ruler meant ruling with a condescending kindness. Being ‘altruistic’ in ways I found grating and false. I rejected it, and played the game, becoming the Thief of Life. I set in motion a cycle of change.
In this life, I was born with a name and identity that never fit me. It was never me. So I moved, changed my name. And became who I always was inside instead of who people told I was.
There are other examples. but….. This is a constant theme through my lives. Change and reinvention. throwing off the identities that others thrust on me, and forging my own. Living as myself, my own , self chosen identity.
