Who am I? - Part II

"Thana" is Arabic for gratitude, and the male version in Hebrew is Nathaniel, which means gift of God.

Which is what my actual name means, anyway.

But then "LaThana", I would expect, means something like "the gratitude". So maybe gratitude is part of who I am. Part of who God says I am.

My actual name is Arabic for garden, which is kind of cool (it's pronounced differently in Arabic, of course).

Gratitude and garden.

Or, as I just discovered, my actual name is Hebrew for flourishing.

So flourishing gratitude? Is that who I am? And a garden, to boot. So growing things.

And then combine that with the waterfall, and flooding the world, and the heat in my palms...

I don't know.

But I have a feeling this is part of the dare.
