Hi everyone--peace
Have you ever wondered about someone's screen name here in CR? I have. I don't know if anyone is interested, but I thought I would see.
There is another thread here in the forum about avatars--and it was cool, but the rule was that you had to follow the guy that posted before you.
This is not a rule here.
The idea here is that if you have wondered about someone's screen name, and have wanted to ask, here is where you can. Or you can just chime in here about your own screen name.
And, I would think that if anyone wanted to ask about someone's avatar, that could also fit in.
(LOL--it is Friday night--I should be out painting the town or something, but I painted it several times and I still don't like the way it looks
, so I am on here being silly)
So, I will start: My screen name is InLove because I believe that God is Love and I am in Him.
I have a Buddhist friend here, Awaiting_the_fifth--I know what his name means, but I have had a really difficult time abbreviating his name. I was worried that ATF was not a good abbreviation, because it reminded me of the U.S. Department of Alcohol, Tobacco, and Firearms. But my friend is from the UK, (I think?). So what does that mean to him? Anyway, I eventually decided to call him "Fifth", which after giving it some thought, I have decided is not right either. The "Fifth" means something very important to him. And I think he would probably prefer that I do not call him that....
Forgive me, my friend?
Anyway, the meaning of a screen name can be quite important. Anyone want to ask someone else about their's? Anyone want to say a word or two about your own?
Some names are quite self-explanatory. Some are not quite so clear. And since this is a multifaith and multicultural place, maybe it will be surprising to someone that someone else did not know what is in a name.
Hope this is not too silly of a thread to post--LOL--this is what happens when you leave me here alone
.
InPeace,
InLove
