Discovery of the Day- Nadia


Nadia is a female name, most commonly given in Europe, the Middle east and North Africa. It has origins in Russian, Arabic, Bulgarian, Spanish, Italian, Greek and Serbian.


In the Western world, its origins are in the diminuitive of the Russian name Надежда, Nadezha which stands for hope.. Nadine is a French form of this diminuitive..

In the Eastern world, Nadia means announcer or caller in Arabic. It also means 'love of my life' and you are my world'. Not only this, but Nadia also means young plant such as a young tree or flower.

I knew that my name had both a European and Middle Eastern-Eastern touch to it.. I was named after Nadia Comeneci and also for it's arabic definition.. but boy.. 'love of my life' and 'you are my world'??

I may be Nadia.. but Nadia Mydin I am..

Christmas..


Caught in the frenzy of unwrapping christmas presents on the joyous anniversary of Jesus Christ's birthday, a moment of pause occurs and my energy dwindles down and if it were a curve, it would be curving downwards.. an anti-climax.. If only I could press the rewind button and play and continue to do so... but well, the next one is probably not until 365 days to come..
