At birth, we are given names from our ancestors. For some, these names bear stories of royalty and riches. For others, they carry historic significance of those who fought for their right to freedom, And as recipients of these gifts it is our responsibility to carry on the legacy of our ancestors and walk firmly in our given paths.
Asiyami translates in the Abua language as Family. A.Au is a shortened version or Asiyami Gold "loosely translated as ‘family wealth’"
The discovery of Gold's name led to a better understanding of her identity. Gold was the name given to her by her great great grandmother during the final moments of her life. It is said that “gold is only given to those who know its value.” The matriarch of Gold’s family was well aware of this and in time Gold would have the opportunity to give added meaning to her name. She has chosen to and continues to deepen her wealth through rich experiences.
Each journey, therefore, becomes another layer in the tapestry of her identity, revealing a deeper understanding of who she is. The girl who dug deep into her family history and unearthed stories of powerful, treasured women revered by their loved ones and their community, has used such inspiration to fuel her life’s pursuit.
