Ever thought about changing your name?

It's very amusing the amount of people who wanted to change thier names due to the intense dislike left by the legacy of thier fathers. For the longest time my last name - Gray - was something of a burden because I was the only one in my family with a different name. Had I not met my long lost brother when I did, should I have become older I seriously thought about changing it to the name of the family whom I grew up with. After that meeting though, things changed and while my feelings with myf ather are INCREDIBLY awkward, the feelings towards the other people who share the same last name has. The last names my brothers and sisters and I share wound up drawing us towards a common goal - namely the hardships we all faced because of him and thus, we decided to make our names represent something positive instead of the negative things its represented for so long.

I haven't thought much of name changing at all since this topic really, but it really did make me ponder the why's of it when all is said and done.

How ya doing, buddy?
