I am particular to a fault and I am princessy. I see it as a realization of a part of me that I am. When people refer to me as Princess I consider it an honor. Being a Princess is more than just being particular. It is the expectation that people will treat me with dignity, respect and honor. I guess I don't see how that is a bad thing.
I am Trixie, fire and brimstone and not letting anyone get in her way. It is like Trixie is Left brain and Princess is Right brain. There are times I feel more like one than the other. Again I feel this is a reality of who I am and knowing is half that battle. Acceptance is another. I accept that I am both.
Being a Princess I think is mistaken by some. tI would like to define Princess and maybe help others to understand.

Sovereignty is the quality of having supreme, independent authority over a territory. It can be found in a power to rule and make law that rests on a political fact for which no purely legal explanation can be provided. ...

Ok, so let me help you put that all together...
A Princess is a member of the Royal Family. being in this Royalty makes me a member of the family that is a ruler over a country. Being a ruler means I rule my own destiny and I have great power. Within this power I am a Sovereign daughter into this family. By being Sovereign means "not controlled by outside forces", so that includes not allowing others to rule or reign over me. Again, I am in control of my destiny, my choices, my life and my world. A member of Royalty must be treated with dignity or respect. Thus, this is how too I see my life.
I expect to be treated this way. I will not allow anyone or anything to steamroll over me. I am a ruler of my own destiny. If you do not adhere to these guidelines, I throw you out of my kingdom. It is that simple.
To be Princess Trisha Trixie adds to that because Trixie does not allow anyone to walk all over her, does not allow any crap, and stands up for herself. Trixie is real to the core and honest to a fault. My words can get me in trouble as well as have meaning and power. Sometimes power to make a difference.
I am proud to be a Princess! I have earned that right. It is my time to be treated in this way. If you don't see it, hear it or beleive it, then I am sorry. If you are my friend or getting to know me to see if you want to be friends, I want you to see my definition.
My meaning is not different than the worlds, it is solely that the PERCEPTION of a Princess is skewed by the world believing that a Princess is helpless,prissy and pouty. Hi, that is called DIVA and that I am not nor ever desire to be.
I have changed a lot in my years. I do not expect any man or any person to ever understand me. If you do, if you are like minded, I am excited. I GROK with you and I openly share this with you. Being like minded is a great and wondrous thing and allows one the opportunity to share with other creative cohorts and people who "get me" so to speak.
I am thankful for others who have challenged this belief and now have given me the opportunity to explain. To know me is to love me. And on the Princess side...Cinderlla worked hard to have the life of her dreams. Sleeping Beauty had to deal with being an outcast. They did not get there by happenstance.
Neither did I.

Just curious, if you are not controlled by outside forces, nor allow others to rule over you, where does God fit in?
And what about being humble, what about humility? Again, just curious. :)
I never mean to shut God out. I couldn't do anything without him or faith. Faith has gotten me through some very rough times.
ReplyDeleteI am humble. I feel you can be humble and confident at the same time. being humble does not mean letting others walk all over you. Just because I don't always say it doesn't mean others don't know it.
Every day I read the Word. Every day I pray. I give back to God when i don't have it. I pay tithe even if I don't have it. Why? Because I know God will provide. I know God is there for me. I also know he says we don't have to or should walk around announcing it to others. People see in me the light and want to know why.
Why?
I am because God is :)
