Frank Yan of Sacramento on Who Are You Truly







Who are you truly? What has been the biggest factors in you to date? When people in Sacramento say the phrase: “be yourself” what do they truly mean and is that even possible with so much to influence us in our daily lives? Frank knows that we are the construction of so much information, that we are made by such things that color and saturate our growth process. Frank Yan says, if there is a part of you inside the chances are that is it lost amongst layers upon layers of external input. Very rarely do we show the world who we truly are and that in itself may just be the most difficult things in the world to do. Frank knows that there are parts of him that he chooses to hide for whatever reasons and on the flip side there are parts of Frank that shine through that are as a result of those things that have penetrated his being and has made him act in a very specific way.


A few months ago Frank saw a breif documentary at the Sacramento International Airport while waiting for his flight out. The documentary was called: What the bleep do we know? Frank think there should be a new one called ‘Who the bleep are we?’ Frank may be challenged for saying this but he believed that very few people here in Sacramento actually know themselves and Frank is for one of them. Everyday is a growing process for us and at the same time Frank is taking on information and behaviors that are ultimately deciding what actions he will take from one moment to the next. However there is a part of Frank Yan that wants that sponginess to stop. We are all sponges. Yes, he said it. Sponges soaking up our environments were in. Most of the times we have to be sponges because there is so much to learn in this day and age that every day becomes a university. There’s always something new to learn and discover about ourselves. Frank wants that part of the sponge to remain open for business but he wants the part of himself he the chooses what actions he personally takes and the personality that he will emit to be a more like a rock than a sponge. Frank wants to choose a pattern of behavior that is what he decided to be in accordance with the belief systems that he have decided best reflects what he believes the universe is about and accurately reflects the purpose he has created for himself.


This is a very challenging time for Frank. Who was the guy Frank Yan that lives in Sacramento 4 weeks ago and is a very different person that he I is today? And the hurdles before Frank seem very high although he is sure they were not. But despite those hurdles Frank will take that fight to his very core. It’s not a fight of violence, but a fight of love whereby Frank must find a way of accepting these new facets of who he is and integrate them into the person he wishes to ultimately shape himself into. Frank is no different from anyone else. Everyone faces those challenges on a daily basis and the process of discovery of that person who you are or have chosen to be deep down, must be faced with love and your held high! Whether you see that inner person with an exact avatar or whether you decide that, that person will be someone new on a daily basis, do it with a sense of pure acceptance of you. You will change, you will adapt, your purpose will change, your desires will change, you ideal self will change, but change is a sponge, waiting to be immersed in a bucket of water.
