Identity

For a long time, the struggles for identity in our communities have been framed in terms of Māori and Pākehā - who is Māori? What is Māori? Authenticity anxieties have been experienced.

My identity struggle today is not so much about Māori viz a viz Pākehā but rather how do I keep my thought and action in continuous alignment and harmony with my creative centre? Secondly, how do I then use the things I have - knowledge, experiences, relationships, resources - to give expression to this creative centre?

This is the adventure of a lifetime!

Be true to thyself, so the expression goes.
