My surname is Fraser. “I am ready” is a translation of the Fraser of Lovat clan motto “Je suis prest”. The statement encapsulates the state of mind and preparation required to reach your potential and be ready for whatever life throws your way. My first name is Trisnasari, a Javanese name derived from Sanskrit.
