HI All
Back again to bore you with some boring facts from my current plain
existence. Well today i have many an
argument about my Name change. You see
I'm changing my name to
Spyke officially and
currently letting everyone know but for some reason a lot of people are finding it very difficult to accept it. I have found there are many people keep
purposefully calling me by my previous name just to p**s me off. To be honest i
don't understand it,
Ive always gone by
Spyke and for the few people who know and use my real name, now it will be
Spyke. but
unfortunately for me
a lot of people just seem to want to annoy me.
Am i wrong in asking people to call me by the name i feel most comfortable with, Am i wrong to try and
disassociate myself from my previous life my shedding the skin of my former self. Am i wrong to ask
those around me to help in this by using the name i choose and am comfortable with.
What do i do, i want to and am changing my name, but i cant still use my previous name by answering it, but at the same time i
don't want to come
across as a prat by refusing to acknowledge people who don't call me
Spyke.
Thanks for listening
well, it would seem to most people that you're being ungrateful considering your past is what made you who you are today, and on my side as an african i believe in the whole "erecting a memorial to the past" thingy(yeah, we're good at that)but it shouldn't be too much of an issue, its your life, its your name, if you would like to change it , then its your decision.
ReplyDeleteHi

And thanks for the encouradgement. Good news is the documents came today. as of the 1/04/09 i will officially be known as Spyke Logan. Go me
