Curiously, these thoughts came to me after an afternoon nap, so I decided to jot them down. I'm hoping that the younger people in my family will appreciate the history and humor behind the process of how they each were named. It helps to have an "old person" like myself recall and commit to paper these memories before the stories are forever lost. I'm also hoping that this will spark a level of interest in my readers about their family names. I would bet there are many tales behind the names that were given to them, as well.

The Aesthetic Epidemic: Understanding the Roots of Lookism
The Aesthetic Epidemic: Understanding the Roots of Lookism We care about more than just ourselves - we care about our loved ones, our communities, and the world around us. We are affected by tragic events, especially when a child is murdered, regardless of where it happens. It deeply impacts us and makes us feel disheartened. Moral evils raise doubts about the goodness of the world and the value of existence, especially for those who believe in a benevolent deity.

The concept of value is subjective and can be created by us.

I couldn't wait, it was going to be my anthem, it was going to destroy that man, it was going to be angry and full of hate and venom and justice and then it came out... it was the song "praying"
