When you started this thread I loved the topic and thought it was a really cool way to get to know others a little more. But then every time I thought about posting, I froze up and decided not to, lol. My username has a little silliness, along with spiritual significance to it, and I suppose I was a little shy to share it. That and I'm not sure how to condense it to a short version of the story. I tend to be long winded when I write, lol But, as promised in another thread, I'm here to share. Riverspirit was my username in a women's forum quite a few years ago. I came up with the concept of it when watching the Disney movie "Pocahontas". Pocahontas had a free spirit and was adventurous. There was a scene when she was going down the river and came to a fork where she had to decide which path to follow. One that was smooth and predictable, or the other where there were twists and turns, going around the river bend. She chose to go around the river bend and discover where it would take her. To me that represented, in real life, embracing the unknown and going with the flow. Letting the spirit of the river guide you. A river is powerful, it forges on and no matter what obstacles are in it's path, it manages to overcome them and carry on, or find a new direction to flow and carry on it's existence. I felt connected to that concept and have always been drawn to rivers... Hence Riverspirt which means the spirit of a river. I created Riverspirit1111 on Mingle before they started allowing duplicate usernames. The system wouldn't let me use just Riverspirit, so I added 1111 to it in order to keep Riverspirit. I chose 1111 because of what they represent as far as messages from the Angels. Angel numbers 1111 are all about manifestation. It's a daily reminder for me to pay attention to my thoughts, because our thoughts are what create our realities. It's also a reminder to me that I am a co-creator of my own life, so no matter what debris shows up in my river flow of life, I have the power/spirit from within to forge forward and manifest my own reality/experiences. So that's how Riverspirit1111 came to be. ❤ thats very interesting like the other rrsponders here,ive been wanting to hear abt ur name,thank u for granting my request,the Name,the concept,the principle,the interpretation and you the owner made an inspiring story Riverspirit1111

3 syllables, 2 vowels used twice, 5 consonants used once, one consonant used twice & 17 years of meaningful connection mixed with frivolity, laughs, escapism, procrastination on doing other things under an assumed identity. EDIT: The first year was at another site which a huge group migrated from...hence the seemingly bad math

When I was creating my profile here, I was asked by a friend, not to use the RedneckHippy name. So, I waited 14 years, and used my original choice of names. She's not the boss of me... Anymore.
