Although I am using my name, pinkchic, as a username in the Hive Blockchain, I still always love to be called CJ.
Perhaps today is a perfect moment to appreciate the power of self-expression for this day’s challenge of the Hive Blog Posting Month, that is, to name me “Name Yourself Day.”
Yes, I am CJ, and it stands for Crystal Jade.
It is my real name, and my parents have given it to me since I was born. I was not born with a silver spoon, but it seemed the two words in my name, Crystal and Jade, had a gem on them, and I love this.
For today’s challenge, I chose to appreciate my name as I also reflect on the wonderful people that call me by my name, my nickname, and my username.
Here in Hive, whenever I read the initials of my name CJ, I always remember two significant people in my life, namely, uncle tengolotodo and sister CJ, ifarmgirl.
Although I do not know them personally, it was nice to hear when they called me CJ.
Indeed they touched my life as they were always there to guide me, especially during my beginning days in Hive. I reflect on them and all the wonderful people who have helped me grow in the blockchain without expecting something in return.
About picking up a name for myself, I have heard various stories from my friends that they felt that their names did not fit who they were and who they wanted to be. Maybe the title for them was a word that they did not feel connected to, an old name, and perhaps it was hard to pronounce.
When I was blogging anonymously in another world, I chose a name that was closer to my name. Other bloggers consider me a foreigner, but I am a noble Filipina. As for me, changing my name the first time I entered my first blogging world was a way to distance myself from the past that I want to leave behind, not to mention that I do not want people to praise me for who I am in the real world, but I wanted to start as nothing in a crypto blogging world.
And when I entered Hive, I came back as an authentic person who loves pink, and at the same time, pinkchic was the pseudonym I have been using since I was in college.
And it was a simple thing that felt more natural and even a simple way of representing myself on a deeper level.
I firmly believe that names have value in life as it represents me and is the first thing people can know about. Just calling a word or a phrase a person wanted to contact me also implies self-expression and others' perception of me.
And that choosing my real name resonates with something that feels most true to me.
Despite having a username and a nickname, they reflect a particular symbol in my life. Most importantly, it is also a matter of embracing my authentic self on this challenge.

You're indeed a gem to your loved ones~ And when you walk, I'm pretty sure you radiate! You are already, in your photos here on Hive so I'm pretty sure, it happens in real life!
Awww, this is just me. Thank you so much, Witz! I also remember when I misspelled your name in the server, and you said to me I was almost saying your real name, and then I found out you are Wietzell, hehe. I am always glad to meet kind people here, just like you. And you are one of the people I always look up to here. Once again, thanks a lot for the support, Witz! Blessings to you.

Thank you sis. Anyway, you mentioned about hive blog posting month. Is this a challenge? Saan to Makita? Hehehe
You are most welcome, sis. It started last April 01 and it is a challenge every day up to the end of the month. And it is in the Hiveblopomo community. Maybe you could join next time when the challenge is up for another month. I happened to see it in my feeds so I have tried. I do not know if I could make it until the end. Hehe
Ah okay so you need to write everyday? That's indeed a very challenging one.
Yes, sis. It is a 30-day challenge. I have seen my other friends joining that is why I am trying as well but I am not sure if I can make it. Sa makaya lang. Hehe. Let's join next time is. I will mention you if the challenge is up. Indeed, so challenging for the busy shed.
Thanks sis.
