It is a harbinger of my youthful ways...they are old and long gone and I miss those days.

I do however; still believe in peace, serenity, happiness and love evin if I don't show it.

Jade - one of my favourite colours is green, and the colour of my eyes.

Jaded -1) because my long term relationship tanked very badly, and I was burnt out.
2 a) And, because instead of my wedding ring I wear a ring that is made of green jade. So I am literally adorned in jade, thus "jaded". It is supposed to be a healing stone with properties specifically related to the HEART. The ring finger is thought to be the energy line to the heart.
b) I need a lot of heart healing. Emotionally and physically. I had a heart arrythmia that caused me problems for about 8 years. Now, I'm working through healing my marriage.

72 - year of my birth

Brilliant thread question, wux!

Mine does mean something to me, but I'm not telling what because it's extremely personal. I hate the "lady" part of it but Brava alone wasn't going to work, and I couldn't think of anything else as an ending.

A little. Not quite enough to get me where I want to be, but these things take time.

A lot of us have user names here that are significant to ourselves. I like to analyze them, and more times than not the name can be deciphered more than one way.

Can you explain why your username is what it is?


Pray tell us what your moniker means to you and why you chose it for yourself.


===============


Hi,

I choose Wholesome Woman and it was not my first, second or third choice but after fifteen attempts or so in getting a username I was finally successful. I was running out of ideas by the time WholesomeWoman came to mind. I am a wholesome person and a woman. So, on the sixteenth or so attempt in entering a username, WholesomeWoman was accepted.

For your information I add the definition since you would like to analyze it:

whole·some adj \ˈhōl-səm\
Definition of WHOLESOME
1: promoting health or well-being of mind or spirit
2: promoting health of body
3a : sound in body, mind, or morals b : having the simple health or vigor of normal domesticity
4a : based on well-grounded fear : prudent <a wholesome respect for the law> b : safe <it wouldn't be wholesome for you to go down there — Mark Twain>

biggrin

<<<<<< Here's the explanation for my current avatar for those who have asked or wondered:



As appears in the OnlineInterlinear version: Exodus 3:13
http://www.scripture4all.org/OnlineInterlinear/OTpdf/exo3.pdf
(goto main site and find the correct chapter if the link doesn't work)

אֶהְיֶה = "I AM THAT I AM" OR "I SHALL BECOME WHO I AM BECOMING"



And as is usually found for the name of God.
יהוה = YHWH = God, the Lord, Jehovah, Yahweh

Hebrew-English traslation to verify if desired:
http://translation.babylon.com/hebrew/to-english/


YHWH spelled vertically instead of right-left

י Yod (yode)
ה He (hey)
ו Vav (vahv)
ה He (hey)


I feel it's kinda unifying if you look at it this way.
A world-wide "in the image of..." representation.

I also like the alternative translation for the "Name" as revealed to Moses the first time...

Among my friends in undergrad school was a guy named Richard. He would get himself in situations where he had to pay for his married girlfriends abortion and get treatment for crabs repeatedly. However, he believed that Jesus was Lord. So they called him the good Rich.

Whereas, I was not so nice and was called The Bad Rich, TBRich.
