To What Name Are You Responding?

Ok. So, they call you victim. They call you a mistake. They call you failure. How do you respond? Do you respond at all? You know you have a choice, right? Just because someone calls you a name, doesn’t mean you have to respond to that name. For example, my name is Bakeba. I am generally not going to respond if I’m addressed as Barbara. (Believe it or not, that is a common mispronunciation of my name.)

Let’s try it this way. To which of these names are you going to respond?

Victim…Victory                        Failure…Flair

Test…Testimony                     A_ _…Asset

Mess…Message                     Stupid…Stupendous

Defeated…Defining                 Mistake, mishap…Mission(ary)

Trial…Trailblazer                     Terror…Terrific

Bitter…Better                           Ignorant…Igniting

You see. The choice is yours. What will it be? To what name will you respond?
