In our search for identity and meaning, many of us look to the outside world—to careers, relationships, possessions, and recognition—for validation. Yet the truth of who we are cannot be found in what changes, fades, or disappears. Our true identity is not something to be achieved or earned—it is something to be remembered. This post is a reflection on that journey inward, one that leads us back to the Source of all things—back to Spirit, to Higher Power, to God.

Who I am is Spirit, Source, Higher Power—God.
My thoughts, beliefs, and even my mind are not who I am. These are tools I use to create experiences, not the essence of my being. For years, I believed my identity came from my achievements, possessions, or the approval of others. I thought I was what I did, what I owned, or how I was perceived. But all of that is impermanent—and none of it is me.

When I define myself by the outside world, I eventually feel the sting of emotional and spiritual pain. Why? Because the world is in constant motion. People change. Circumstances shift. What once gave me confidence can disappear in a moment. When I rely on these things for my sense of self, I build my foundation on sand. This dissatisfaction stems from a fundamental error—looking for who I am in places that cannot reveal the truth.

But when I turn my focus inward, I begin to uncover something real and eternal. As I release attachments to the material world and all I believed defined me, I open a doorway within. I begin a sacred journey back to the truth of who I am. This is not a journey of doing—it is a journey of being. And it begins with one essential act: learning to love myself unconditionally. When I transform my thoughts from negativity to positivity, I step into the light of self-awareness and authentic love.

I have the power to create loving thoughts about myself. I can choose to think thoughts of respect, acceptance, approval, and compassion. These thoughts nourish my soul and reshape my identity. As I learn to love myself as I am, I come closer to the truth: that to love myself is to know God. Because God is love. In this sacred union, I recognize that knowing myself, loving myself, and knowing God are not separate paths—they are one and the same.

As I continue to love myself deeply, I awaken to my true identity. I am not separate from Spirit—I am an expression of it. I am not just a spiritual being having a human experience—I am a spiritual being awakening to my spiritual nature. In this awareness, I restore my connection to my Higher Power, and I remember that I am of God, from God, and one with God. As Dr. Wayne Dyer said, “To say ‘I am God’ is not blasphemy—it is the recognition of identity.”

Your identity is not something to find in the world—it is something to uncover within. When you begin to love yourself unconditionally, you begin to remember who you truly are. You reconnect with your Source. You return to the awareness that you are not separate—you are whole, divine, and loved. This is not the end of a journey, but the beginning of your return home—to the truth of your being.
