What's in a name?


    Why the blog name?
    What does Gypsy mean?


    1. gyp·sy
      noun /ˈjipsē/ 
      gipsies, plural; gypsies, plural
      1. A member of a traveling people with dark skin and hair who speak Romany and traditionally live by seasonal work, itinerant trade, and fortune-telling. Gypsies are now found mostly in Europe, parts of North Africa, and North America, but are believed to have originated in the Indian subcontinent
        • The language of the gypsies; Romany
          • A nomadic or free-spirited person
                So, I either need to go tanning and learn some Romany? 
                Okay, tanning Alot!
                  Or we can just go with the third definition! 
                  *A nomadic or free-spirited person*



                  1. no·mad
                    noun /ˈnōˌmad/ 
                    nomads, plural
                    1. A member of a people having no permanent abode, and who travel from place to place to find fresh pasture for their livestock
                      • A person who does not stay long in the same place; a wanderer
                            Which really ends up working perfectly since we are only on this earth for a short period of time! Then we get to head home to our Lord Jesus Christ!
