What's in a name?

Apollo, what does that bring to mind? Space: I'll never leave this planet, never explore the stars. I'll never visit athens, let alone Mars. The Sun: A golden chariot carries a God across the morning sky. A rocket carries us to the heavens, resting up on high. The God: Athletic, a healer, the pinnacle of man. He plays music and shines light with bow in hand. Me: I am none of these things; I am no scientist, no celestial body, and certainly not a God. But this is the name I chose for myself, no matter if you think it's odd. Does it matter what I am, what I'm not, or what you think of me? Or does it only matter what I strive to be?
