My legal name is Celena Leanne Price, but when I look in the mirror, I don't see a Celena. My name was chosen out of a baby book (odd spelling and all) by my mother, but growing up I have always had a variety of nicknames. Finally one day my mother began calling me "Cybil". Plain and simple, Cybil. I had so much going on I would sometimes come home in a bad mood, or off in my own train of thought that this name just stuck. As my best friend heard my mother call me that she smiled and said it fit me perfectly. Perfect because I was so many things but altogether the name was so simple. From there on out I have gone by Cybil. A name that I can see as I look in the mirror. A warm, loving and sweet hearted person that always had her mind occupied. The name has sprung up some conversation over the years, I seemed to be asked quite often if I have multiple personalities. No, I don't, I just have the brain capacity to ponder many things at once. :)
