What's in a Name?

I've always wanted a pseudo-name, but I surprised myself by picking "Someone Beautiful." This isn't an egotistical name. I am just your average looking person, you wouldn't notice me from anyone else on the street, and this has never bothered me too much. Well, not usually. I do frustrate myself when I don't fix my hair nicely or run out of time to wear something nice and have to run where I am going. But mostly I have cared about how I fit in this world and where my place is in life and whether I am making a difference to anyone else. Someone Beautiful is an ideal I have in mind. To be kinder, more considerate and thoughtful, happy, patient, perfectly honest, an optimist, etc. I want to be like the teacher one remembers in elementary school who made all the difference, the person who was your friend when no one else was, and the person who smiles at you when you are having a bad day. I want to be Someone Beautiful.
