What's in a name?
What's in a name?
Names can identify us, represent us and our beliefs, tell our history and even our future. Sometimes we can be summed up by our names. Some names seem to be self-fulfilling prophecies. A child named Bubba does not call to mind a tall, reedy, geeky kid nor does the name Poindexter bring to mind a squat, compact foot ball player. Just think of the names of certain characters and the traits associated with them: Ebenezer Scrooge, Jay Gatsby, Sherlock Holmes, Carrie Bradshaw.
Because association of names and what a person, place, object is called is important, this blog will be called Well of Encouragement and can be found under the link: Well of Encouragement. Please join me there as we continue our journey together. VR
