Why Trish?

Many people do blame their parents for giving them names that they don't like - probably because their names sound too unpleasant to hear.  So those who have the means have opted to change their names into great sounding ones or into lucky ones.  


Have you ever wondered what your name means for you or what it does for your life?  Well, I have...  


I'm not a Chinese but I believe in a lot of things and stuffs.  Honestly, I can't count them all with my fingers.  Why I believe so is because I have proven that many of the superstitions I know of prove to be true.  I continue to learn and because I have more time now, I dig around the web for ideas esp. on names - I'm just curious until I found a site that tells how to determine if your name is bringing you good or bad luck.  'tis just for fun but I want to take it seriously.  


Accordingly, the name of a person greatly affects him and how he lives.  In Feng Shui, there are five elements namely; wood, fire, earth, metal and water (constructive cycle in Feng Shui).  And talking about names, each alphabet in your name is being represented by an element.  


A,B,K,L,U,V - Wood
C,D,M,N,W,X - Fire
E,F,O,P,Y,Z - Earth
G,H,Q,R - Metal
I,J,S,T - Water


Wait, that doesn't end just there.  You will need to determine your favorable element according to the season you were born in.  Check your favorable element below and element to avoid.

4th February to 5th May - favorable: Metal, avoid: Wood

6th May to 7th August - favorable: Water, avoid: Fire

8th August to 7th November - favorable: Wood, avoid: Metal

8th November to 3rd February - favorable: Fire, avoid: Water

For four Earth months: 5th April to 5th May, 7th July to 7th August, 8th October to 7th November and 6th January to 4th February - avoid Earth

My name is Aires and my favorable element is metal so I should avoid wood.  That's why I want my name be changed to Trish because it only has two elements which are metal and water and metal feeds water (constructive).  And Trish means 'noble'. :D

Military wife's battle

I am a military wife and I write this blog in order to salute to all the military wives out there who wholeheartedly devote their lives for their families in the absence of their husbands due also to their obligations to defend the country.  


Let us acknowledge the fact that many people like the heroism thing and would like to join the military because they think that's the best way to do it.  Well, we all are heroes in our own way.  How?  The act of selflessly offering oneself to do things for the benefit of all is the one - no matter who you are and what your role is in the society.  So that talking specifically about military wives, it's not an easy task to be both father and mother to the children and I'd tell you, when we're alone we have no choice than to embrace the fact that we are military wives.  Sometimes, I hate the word 'automatic.'  Name all you can to interpret that word including to describe our roles as military wives - when our husbands leave home, we are automatically the ones in charge of everything.  We also are alone fighting the battle of being both a father and mother.  That is why I salute to all the military wives!  


Btw, a quote to inspire: "Military wife; the toughest job in the military."

But the entire process will light up a bulb in your mind, resulting into innovative ideas and a fresh approach towards various situations. At the same time, your family and friends grab your attention, and you long to bond with them. This month, you Rams also have spiritualism, travel and business deals on your cards.
