Names

   I have always liked playing with names.I like looking up the meanings and spellings of old ones.  I would have had more children just to be able to use more names (although I had the best children already). Lately we in our family have been a bit preoccupied with names  It actually is a small hobby of mine seeking unusual but old ones, seeing how the rhythm of two together flow or hearing the sing-song lilt in a name coupling.
   To me names are like butterflies.  You speak them out into the air and most of them fly away, a few will hover around the same place but eventually, one will softly alight on the flower that perfectly suits them.
   I have always believed that names have a certain power in our universe, that our names echo throughout the eternities.We understand in our faith that names help to define our souls and lead us to places we wish to go.  I like names. 

First and Most Difficult

Author Angst, Pen Panic, Paper Paranoia, Sentence Scared, Word Wary, Writers' Remorse... Yes! That is me! Here Bear has made this beautiful blog for me to wax poetic, or right the wrongs of the world, or just make much ado about nothing...and can I write? No! All of a sudden I am flumoxed, jammed, stymied, stilted... okay so I can list words but that is about it! So this is my "just write something, anything and then when you get a thought write a real entry." entry. Be patient with me, I'm really working toward that front porch with white, wicker furniture and some lemonade. I do have one thought that I have retained for a couple of weeks now so it must mean something to me...in church somewhere someone mentioned how the original apostles were always brushing people away from Christ in order for him to rest...I realized that in recent times I have complained about "new people" coming to church and not keeping sacred things sacred. Then I realized that I, like the apostles are just trying to do the right thing, but I really don't want to be like the apostles and keep the people that are earnestly seeking the truth and the Lord away from him...so I have been repenting and trying to have a change of heart. There it is my first of I hope many tittles about nothing!
