Alexander Name Meaning

Alexander Name Meaning

Scottish, English, German, Dutch; also found in many other cultures: from the personal name Alexander, classical Greek Alexandros, which probably originally meant ‘repulser of men (i.e. of the enemy)’, from alexein ‘to repel’ + andros, genitive of aner ‘man’. Its popularity in the Middle Ages was due mainly to the Macedonian conqueror, Alexander the Great (356–323 bc)—or rather to the hero of the mythical versions of his exploits that gained currency in the so-called Alexander Romances. The name was also borne by various early Christian saints, including a patriarch of Alexandria (adc.250–326), whose main achievement was condemning the Arian heresy. The Gaelic form of the personal name is Alasdair, which has given rise to a number of Scottish and Irish patronymic surnames, for example McAllister. Alexander is a common forename in Scotland, often representing an Anglicized form of the Gaelic name. In North America the form Alexander has absorbed many cases of cognate names from other languages, for example Spanish Alejandro, Italian Alessandro, Greek Alexandropoulos, Russian Aleksandr, etc. (For forms, see Hanks and Hodges 1988.) It has also been adopted as a Jewish name.

What a miracle,
You and I,
Entwined in the same nest;
What a miracle,
You and I: one Love,...

In this world and the next,
In an ecstasy without end. ~ Rumi

No hardball challenging questions for these fools!

Ra Divakar: they want yes men to ask yes questions - no hardball please! Probably they will narrow their debates to only Faux Opinions! Losers think that majority of Americans do not notice - fools!

Seeing things through someonelse's eyes - can be very helpful



Sometimes, Ron, finally seeing things from someone else's perspective can totally change your life.

Which, sometimes, explains exactly why they're there.

Last night someone confronted me on something I had written on facebook - "showing some hate (on my ex)". And I looked at it and reflected on it and realized she was right so I deleted it and came up with that Christ/Buddha post. Another version here:

I just read a post that said that October is "agent orange" month. How many out there even know what "agent orange" is? This post was very timely, because our class of "65" fellow classmate, David Scanlin past away this morning around 4. He was one of the many catastrophes of the Vietnam war. He was a lnguist during his years of duty in the Army. He was a great guy, and the one who gave me my first kiss in kindergarten, and my lifetime playmate. We even went to one of his last class reunions together. David was one of the sufferers from "agent orange". Once diagnosed, his health continue to go downhill. He lived in a veterans hospital for many, many of his last years. He suffered cancer, a stroke, kidney failure, and who knows what else.It has been difficult for his 5 siblings watch their brother deteriorate over the years. Lucky for him; he had a very supportive, caring family, who did everything they could to make sure his care through the VA was the best. He will be missed by all of us who knew him, and I know many of you have great stories to share about David. He is another one of the many war heroes and casualties. I am brought to tears when I think of what a useless war of which we have had many; causes such pain and sadness to many and their families. Vets are always proud of their service to their country, but at what cost? Someone recently suggested that we put pictures of our veteran heroes on the front of the Wheaties boxes. I think that would be wonderful. I would like David to be one of them. David was one of my heroes. I don't know if I said this right, but it is my attempt at a eulogy. My heart goes out to his family, and it would be good to his brother and 4 sisters in your prayers for strength and courage to go through their loss.

Ron Alexander I am so sorry, Bonnie. Several of the vets. in the hospice are victims of this chemical agent (a herbacide) dumped all over Vietnam to clear out the jungle so they would not have a place to hide! It is still over there now infecting the third generation - babies born with defects because of it. Nixon promised to clean it up at the Paris Peace Accords but did not carry out his promise. I have a Vietnam Vet. friend Dr. John Wesley Fisher who takes vets. back every year to work in clinics with these poor victims. I have him speaking tomorrow at the VA telling about his trips and reconciliation therapy. He has written several books, and he is also speaking at 11 tomorrow at the VA auditorium and you are welcome to come. Also I have him scheduled to give workshop at Unity at 2 PM on Sunday on same subject. You are most welcome there too! peace, ron

Don't let the dazzling heights you aspire to, Ron, scare you from getting started.

After all, few could climb Mt. Everest tomorrow, though virtually all could begin preparing.
