IDENTITY THEFT – GIVING AWAY YOUR SELF-WORTH

Identity theft is a terrible crime that causes loss and heartache. In the UK, it is reported that in 2023:

• Criminals stole £1.17 billion through unauthorised and authorised fraud
• Banks prevented a further £1.25 billion of unauthorised fraud through advanced security systems.

However, there is an even more insidious form of identity theft that has scarred people’s lives and has caused them to forget who they are and has people believing that they are small, limited and powerless.

These are denials of your true self and an assertion of a false you.

This form of insidious theft of your identity began soon after you arrived on Earth. Parents, teachers, siblings, clergy and authority figures told you that you are inept, insignificant, ugly, stupid, worthless, unworthy, and sinful and that the world is a dangerous jungle with threats at every turn.

Over time, you begin to believe these terrible lies until the day comes when you forget your innate beauty, strength, innocence, and safety. Eventually, you adopt an identity contrary to your divine nature and may have since lived as someone you are not.

The truth is, despite the naysayers and the judges of your intentions, choices and character, you have more beauty inside than you can imagine. And somewhere, in the deepest recesses of your lovely heart and soul, there is a still small voice whispering the undeniable truth that you are loved more than you can know, and you are, and always have been and will be – enough.

So, cast aside the self-doubt, the self-judging voice and the limitations you and others place on you. If faith can indeed move mountains, imagine what a little faith in yourself might achieve. Your belief in your potential is the key to unlocking your true identity and self-worth.

Indeed, look at where you are now and remember what amazing things you have done to survive and thrive. You have overcome challenges, disappointments, heartache, and struggle to get here. Your past achievements are a testament to your strength and resilience.

Perhaps now is the time to give the giant inside you a nudge and take the first step towards reclaiming your real identity and self-worth.

A SIMPLER LIFE

In 1973, Gladys Knight and The Pips released a song that was to become a classic music track. The song was called Midnight Train to Georgia.

Essentially, it tells the story of a man who is disillusioned with Tinseltown and decides to return home to his roots. Buried within the track are the lyrics, "... Said he's going back to find, ... going back to find, a simpler place and time."

To me, the simpler place and time are best reflected in when we were children. A time when curiosity and fun were natural states. A time when fashion, Facebook likes, updating Insta', prejudice, and fear did not form or dictate our interaction with the world.

There was a time when it was more natural to have mud, dirt, jam, worms and books welded to our hands than a mobile phone or iPad.

A time when giving and receiving affection, empathy, kindness, and outbursts of unbridled happiness and excitement were unencumbered by the adult conventions of defence mechanisms, social anxiety, embarrassment, or a fear of rejection.

Of course, I accept that many did not have the version of a childhood I’ve described. Equally, I will hold my hands up and admit that my childhood was of a different time.

Notwithstanding, there is an emerging (some might say a critical) need for us to slow down and consider how we might be complicating our lives and those of the next generation.

Like the protagonist in the Gladys Knight song, who needed to break away from what was hurting and disillusioning him, we too may wish to consider detaching from old ways of working (presenteeism), assessing (judging ourselves), thinking (negatively), acting (selfishly), comparing (ourselves with others), wanting (stuff we don’t need), and striving (for things that don’t matter).

The Buddhists say that attachment is the source of all suffering. And suffering can be found in fear, ego and loss - all debilitating characteristics of the human psyche. So, I don’t know about you, but it seems to me that we can move towards a simpler and more peaceful life by detaching from the above.

I’ll leave the last word to another character, this time from a film. George Bailey in It’s a Wonderful Life enthuses to his Uncle Billy, “You know what the three most exciting sounds in the world are? Anchor chains, plane motors, and train whistles.”

I’ve already caught my train to a simpler life - I hope you catch yours too!
