Last night I took a peek at todays prompt question, just to give myself some extra time to consider my answer. The question I was met with, I’ll be honest, irritated me right off the bat!
Now, I understand that these are nothing more than an electronically generated question rolodex, with no one actually manning the wheel… at least, this is my belief. The problem I have isn’t with WordPress asking, but rather, I know that there are many phishing worms out there that just love to know anything factual or personal about us, as well as any of our favorite things.
Ask yourself what kind of questions are asked of you, while generating any new account log in information… who was your best friend from high school, what was your dogs favorite name, where did you go to school, what is your mothers maiden name, etc. This list goes on and on…
If we are all being truthful here, who all really wants to know our middle names? Would you really be interested in my middle name, along with why I have it? How many of you find it thoroughly entertaining and engaging to read all of the chapters of lineage names within the bible… whosit begets who? I am not lessening the value of the information in scripture, as it is there for a valuable purpose, but it is still tedious to get through, none the less.
Back in the day, folks usually had a single name… one name, followed by your house, clan, or tribal lineage name.
In honor of the old ways, I shall stick with my known and recognized name, here within this community… Wiwohka, meaning, rushing or roaring water!
If you wish to know further, of my lineage, take it to scripture! Beneath the single recognizable name of Wiwohka, is simply a woman of God… The righteousness of God, IN Christ Jesus!
I think that should be enough information, don’t you?!
Here, have a cookie…
Journey With Me! 
I’m private when it comes to personal information too.

I was going to try changing the question, but the only thing I thought of was, ” What’s Your Fiddle Game and is there any significant meaning?”, but I don’t play the fiddle… and it’s friday, so I will put my imaginary efforts into building a fort in an Imp infested jungle… hehe

I agree. That is why I some times skip some of the prompts or answer it without giving out personal information. This is a very publick platform.

This is exactly the reason why I keep my identity anonymous. If you’ve noticed, I don’t even have an actual profile picture.
But I must’ve been as I’ve been writing a lot more of the last seven months, I probably let more personal information out than I would’ve preferred to

I agree, like that’s getting too personal. I mean anyone can find what my name means on their own. But like if you were to disclose what it means to you, it’s too precious. Even the Bible has Jesus speaking and it says, “… nor cast your pearls unto swine. Before they turn again and rend you.” What that verse was talking about was the gospel. It was trying to say, don’t share the gospel with anyone unless they are open to it. But it also tries to show that our jewels and pearls are precious and they are not to be shared with just anyone. It has to be shared with the right people.
