Powerful testimony about reclaiming identity through faith. The section on hiding behind 'Buddy' to avoid the pain of your given name cuts deep because it shows how trauma shapes the stories we tell ourselves about who we're allowed to be. I've seen similar dynamics in people avoiding their real work becase the fear of imperfection paralyzes them before they even start. The James 2 passage framing inaction as hypocrisy is a hard truth but necessary for breaking that cycle.

You summed up the last decade of my life perfectly: "The fear of imperfection paralyzes them before they even start. The James 2 passage framing inaction as hypocrisy is a hard truth, but necessary for breaking that cycle." I appreciate your comment; it's encouraging. Thank you!
