When I first came here I was at a point when I felt like everything was so up in the air. It felt like something was going to happen soon, like my *life* was about to start, and I had no idea what it would bring. So the name carried with it a lot of that uncertainty.I've gotten comments that I should change it to something a little less... uncertain, I guess. I felt the same way. I have this thing about nice whole numbers, so I figured I would wait until I hit my next even hundred, then I would make the switch. Thanks to the "three words only" thread, that number came faster than I expected it to, and I realized that I wasn't ready to change yet. So I thought about what it was that was holding me back. What I realized is that instead of being apprehensive about upcoming uncertainties, I look forward to them. Now I feel like the name holds the door open on possibility. I'm sharing this because I believe thought is so powerful. For any of you who may have attached an anxious or apprehensive connotation to my name before, as I did, I am hoping that you may help me make it more positive! to all of you! *And darn it! I had a good one picked out, too!* Maybe some other time...
