it's time

[adrienmundi]

A shift in nomenclature today: I think I need something that I can grow into, that holds room and opportunity for me, rather than marking a time and perspective in which denigration and deflection seemed more important, if less accurate.

The root, as I understand it/was presented to me:

"Phora" - direction, setting, grain (v. "φέρω" = to bring, bear, hold, have. meta-phora = move, transport, transfer, transpose, convey etc).

"Pros" (preposition) - towards, unto, for

"Prosphero" (active verb) = offer, give, present, provide, propose
"Prospheromai" (passive) = volunteer, being open to, being conducive to, potentiate

"prosphoros" (adjective) = conducive, opportune, apt, generative/fertile


I'd like to think I can occupy this. I'm certainly going to try.

Making the decision to attempt to claim this, even as a target or goal, took some time, obviously.

Add: glowing, phosphorescent. If that's how it's spelled... :)
