What's in a Name?

Okay, let's start out by being honest. Galen Pearl is not my real name. It is a name I have loved for years. I wanted to name one of my children Galen Pearl, but the name didn't fit any of them. Much to their relief! It's so easy to torment them. "I think I'll just go down to the courthouse and change your name to Galen Pearl." "Noooooo," they wail. So, although I like my real name very much, I figured I could name myself Galen Pearl for this blog. It makes me happy. And this blog is all about ways to be happy.
