Meaning of a Name.

Hanis the devout.

I grew up thinking that was what I should be. For I was told that the meaning of my name is to be devout, in the religious sense.

I waited for the calling, of the moment, or the pull, the urge, desire to reflect the meaning of my name.

But it never came. I tried to be. I failed.

But then, one day I decided to google the meaning of my name.

And oh what a difference two simple letters can make.



Hanisah the devout.

Hanis.

Hanis the.

Hanis the brave.



Now, doesn't that seem more suitable with me?
