My son called me today & told me the name of our new grandson *:-) It is a classic, strong, acceptable, honorable name, & the new young man can join the rest of us now that he has been properly introduced *:-)
My boss belongs to a native North American tribe that has the custom of the men in the tribe gathering in a circle after a newborn is named, & standing & shouting the name into the heavens, as a way of announcing the arrival to the cosmos. I think that is pretty cool, & I hope to do it next Tuesday, since we have our meetings just once per week, & the news about the name got to me too late for today's meeting. I look forward to it *:-)
About Me
- listening for the sound that can't be heard
- I am an art educator and writer, all forms. I have exhibited, and short story specialist. I am a manager for an artists' studio in a Redwood Forest. Please keep it simple, natural, human-centric, and fun. "One touch of nature makes the whole world kin." - Shakespeare. "Young people have such short attention spans these days. And with publishing, kids have instant entertainment in the pockets of their puffling pants. Oh, you see them hanging around together, hunched over a book of 14-line iambic pentameter, thumbing away, transfixed like zombies. Not talking to each other. Not interacting socially. Lost to the world." - Upstart Crow
