Weekend Kindness
Reaching Others Through Kindness

If you have been around blogs and blogging for any length of time, you are probably familiar with Blogthings. In poking around some blogs the other day, I ran across the intriguing question, What’s Your Name’s Hidden Meaning? Because it is nearly impossible to find the name Claudia in any of those personalized trinkets or souvenirs you see at nearly any checkout counter, I decided to give it a try just to see what would happen.

Lo and behold, Claudia was in the database and here are a few of the results:

• You are very open. You communicate well, and you connect with other people easily. (actually, I’m a good listener)
• You are a naturally creative person. Ideas just flow from your mind. (got me confused with someone else here)
• A true chameleon, you are many things at different points in your life. (aren’t we all?)
• You are very adaptable (most of the time)
• You are light hearted and accepting. You don’t get worked up easily. (true, no extremes here)
• Well adjusted and incredibly happy, many people wonder what your secret to life is. (The joy of the Lord is my strength, that’s my “secret”.)
• You don’t really have a lot of worries. (see above)
• You are balanced, orderly, and organized. You like your ducks in a row. (what’s the point of having ducks if they’re not in a row?)
• People can see you as stubborn and headstrong. You definitely have a dominant personality. (who? me?)

It also said I was tightly wound and a type-A personality, but those don’t fit me at all.

Here a few other things you should probably know:

• I feel strongly that if it’s not chocolate, it’s not dessert
• There are only 8 – 10 hours in the life of a banana that it is really worth eating.
• Fruit’s a risk. Jerry Seinfeld actually said that, but I thought it long before. In what other food group can you take two things that look exactly alike, say 2 cantaloupes or 2 strawberries, and have one be perfectly good to eat and the other not?
• Rules are not meant to be broken; rules are meant to be followed.
• Everybody should just try to get along.
• I am honored to be a contributing author at Weekend Kindness. I trust that lives will be changed through the work that is being done here.
