RE: What's the story about your username on Steem?

in #steem7 years ago

@neeqi is a nickname derived from Monique. Monique was a character I played once upon a time in my life, a persona that was far from who I actually was. The thing about toying with different identities is there is an interesting time when you sometimes begin to resonant with something you previously didn't. The mind tries to categories and analysis your identity whilst you begin to find confidence in places you never had before. Its like wearing a mask and becoming whatever character you choose. Monique to me was a character with more confidence, empowerment, motivation and sexuality than what I had at the time. There was also a whirlwind of bizarre circumstances occurring but I am glad amongst it all I was able to adapt to a concept I unintentionally created for myself. @neeqi was stylised for me by a friend who was able to experience the Monique persona, and could see how it had benefited me. I have always liked the nickname and have been using it for the last 5 years or so.
