I am freaked out by a certain shades of green. Dylan Thomas mentions a green bay in one of his poems. Do not go gently into that good night. And I see he wrote a poem about the Force that Through the Green Fuse Drives the Flower. I just bought a green jacket today though to make amends.

Thanks, Jim. Pascual is of Easter - special.

Jim Agustin (jim_pascual_agustin) | 625 comments :) really? well, thanks to the old empires of Spain for renaming most of the people living in the Philippines (replacing the more Southeast Asian names) ;P

Born on Passover, to be specific. My book of names (Writer's Digest) says Pascual is French. But I think of religions spreading all over, so names, too, perhaps. Looking forward to learning about a French name from the Philippines. ~:)

Jim Agustin (jim_pascual_agustin) | 625 comments oh. so I can claim to be French. hahaha.

Agustin is my surname, actually. I think it's a different way of writing out names. Pascual is my mother's surname (but it is also not hers, as it is her father's surname...). My family has no record of a pre-Hispanic name. Sadly. Our ancestors didn't run to the hills to escape the "rebranding" ;P

:) Neat. I read somewhere else that your name was latin. Pina is Spanish - from pinea, from pinus, PINE. :) Have a good great day.

This Khasi pine is in the Phillipines, and in South Africa where you traveled. The Spanish used this tree to make Turpentine~! :)~

Also known as the three needled pine = Father, Son, Holy Ghost. Speaking of Easter...

M | 11617 comments I’m looking for the church that has the holiest ghost.

Start with the wood. A good church is made of wood? George Washington among many other presidents lived in wood cabins. George's father's name was Agustin. :_~ Y'all have a good one!

I quoted Carl Jung. Sigmund's name mean Victorious Defender.
