If you ever watch any of the videos that I post on any of the social media platforms, you'll notice that I end this with every video. I'm going to explain it all here and I'm going to be as comprehensive as possible.
π Some may find this to be rather offensive, but I find it go in the complete opposite direction. One of the nicknames I actually take rather fondly is "Munkee", but I spell it the way that I do purposely to not make it seem so "offensive" to the eye. I shouldn't have to explain this, but I am aware that there are people who would consider this to be a dig on my "race." If I can be completely honest, I feel that the concept of race is a social constructure for various reasons, but that will be for a later conversation at a later time. In any case, that is the reason why I embrace the name of "Munkee" as it is a street name identity that I want to introduce as a playful side of Street Therapy.
βοΈ Mentioning more of the playful side of Street Therapy, this is also the reason why I have this spelt the way that I do. Though Street Therapy does have a serious notion behind it, I do realize that to keep the balance right, I have to tend to the casual side of Street Therapy. As a holistic practitioner, I like to focus on benevolent balance of not just myself, but the people I would tend to. In a mentally playful manner with the spelling of these words, I would want my newly acquired audience to question the spelling but look past the spelling once they realize what the message actually says. Because honestly, I do love you...defaultly...but how I feel you treat me will be how I treat you, but that ultimately shows me how you love yourself.
π The color green has a great significance in my life. Green indicates a great deal in ways of everyday and practical life: plants, money, growth, in some cases even jealousy and envy. But one of the biggest reasons why I use green hearts is because of the spiritualist that I am. Have you noticed that the heart chakra is represented by the color green? In my beliefs, that notion alone has me to where I can exude the most love for that and those that align with me, my soul, my purpose on this planet. As I did mention that I am a holistic practitioner, utilizing 3 of them the way I do signifies that I keep myself in love and health to the body, the mind, and the spirit...not just my own, but to those I tend to.
Side note to this paragraph: Green hearts are the closest representation that I have to embodying myself with agape love.
When I record my "Daily Vibe" videos (actually, with almost all of the content that I make), these reasons are the full-on reason as to why you see me end all of my content with "Munkee luvs u lyk u luv urself! πππ". Consider it a signature if you will of me as the street therapist that I am. Mind you, I am just a holistic coach that deals with self-transformation, but I bring my experiences of life to my work to help others "navigate the streets of their lives." I understand that life is difficult and there's no way of getting around that, but I also understand that as difficult as life can get, there's easier ways of getting around it...and though not every street has a detour, I fully believe that with enough love that one has for oneself and the world around them, they don't have to take the full difficult path alone. With everything I explained, this is my purpose and with the signature of "Munkee luvs u lyk u luv urself! πππ", I can only hope to make the transitions of life and change just a little easier for everyone.
Regardless who you are, I love you... and if you read this whole passage thus far, I want to genuinely thank you and know that I have the sincerest of gratitude for taking the time.
