Today is my mother's nameday. So I want to dedicate this week's writing exercise to her. As the obvious choice I wrote a drabble on the topic nameday. Enjoy!
2016/09/12 – nameday (Drabble)
A name is something precious –
something that accompanies you as long as you live and even after
you're long dead it will stay with you, eternally. So let me put a
saint at your side, to guide you, to protect you and wish you well.
To bestow you with something to call your own, to be a part of your
identity. This day is yours; it reminds you that you are precious
regardless of your age. Let's celebrate this day, celebrate in your
name and for your sake! Today you take the cake, quite literally.
Because this is your nameday.
