About
Name: Laura
Location: Kentucky, USA
Laura is fabulously witty, astoundingly intelligent, stunningly beautiful, and able to recite Jabberwocky while leaping tall buildings in a single bound. She doesn’t live near a beach, but would enjoy long walks on it if she did.
When observed in her natural habitat, Laura may be found writing ludicrous “About” descriptions, reading an unhealthy number of fabulous books, swing dancing every chance she gets, watching the occasional scifi flick when there’s no dancing to be had, and writing papers so the Powers That Be will let her graduate with her master’s degree in Social Work some day. If you watch very carefully, you might even find her fixing a computer or ten (though she’s generally shy about such things lest the whole world discover she was a computer technician in a past life and all stampede at once to have their hard drives recovered and viruses deleted and then she wouldn’t have any time to read books or dance or write papers). She also frequently and unapologetically writes terrible run-on sentences.
What does Ani Ruhama mean?
In the book of Hosea, Gomer has an illegitimate daughter named Lo-Ruhama, which means “Not my loved one.” Later on, God renames her “My loved one” , adopting her as His own and loving her unconditionally. Ani Ruhama means “My name is Ruhama,” or “My name is Loved.”
“I will show my love to the one I called ‘Not my loved one.’”
-Hosea 2:23 (NIV)
