my name

 It's James Gordon Bradley.

I thought I'd look up what my names mean.

James, the name of one of Jesus' disciples, means in Greek, "replacer". But in Latin "Jacomus" means 'may God protect.

Gordon means "a round hill".

Bradley means "a broad meadow" or a "broad lee".

So my name means "May God protect a round hill in a broad meadow", or something like that.

Not bad, I think.

Not bad at all.

About Me

some ponderings by an aging white man who is an Episcopal priest in Connecticut. Now retired but still working and still wondering what it all means...all of it.
