Every now and then I come across a word that I really, really like.
I like certain words for certain specific reasons.
These words then become my special words. Words I treasure.
They end up in my reserved place for special words …
However, for that particular word to become one of my special words, it must comply. It must have certain unique qualities.
Klēronomos?
In the Greco-Roman world the word klēronomos is a legal term.
Klēronomos is found on ancient inscriptions that refer to a son after he succeeded to the inheritance of his father and became the representative of his father, undertaking all the duties and obligations of his father.
What many people don't know is that I am also a propagandist for open-faced-freedom.
Subsequent to my previous post (this one), I will in this post get to learn and document myself as a reckless, zealous proponent of the unadulterated Gospel of freedom …
I will do so open-faced! Anakalyptō!
Feasts.
Towards the end of each year the season of feasts arrives in many cultures around the world.
It is inevitable and the highlight for many people each year.
Yet, no one is concerned over its origin and birthplace.
In a confused world, what are we celebrating?
Look at the feasts of Rosh Hashanah, Yom Kippur, Sukkot, Muharram, Dasara, Mawlid an Nabi, Christmas, Diwali, Muharram, Ashura, Rohatsu and many others.
They all celebrate something or someone. As a feast-goer we need to get behind the facts if we aim to celebrate well in all the rituals and customs.
