AMYRTH

Lots of my friends do not know of my pen name Amyrth, only a few special people know. I have a different identity whenever I use this name. I can share all of my thoughts without hesitations, give constructive criticisms all I want to. I can enter different forums and give advices. Well, i can say that this is my cyber name, just like the pen names that our heroes used during the Spanish era, i.e., Dapit Hapon of Rafael Palma. Where does Amyrth came from? I used to read the Bible whenever I have free time (i now call it pleasure time) , remember the gifts of the Three Wise Men to Jesus in Bethlehem, one of them is myrrh. It's used there as an embalming oil but it can be associated with incense and perfumes. It's like giving a scent to a rotting soul. It is said to be way more expensive than gold. During that time also, I got fascinated about Greek mythology, so why not give myrrh an ancient greek twist. Eureka!!!! I came up with Amyrth. Eversince, I use Amyrth to almost all web publications that I do. I'm so pissed with Carlos Agassi because aside from his rapping that totally sucks, his "nick name" sounds like mine, i just do not know the spelling, grrrr.... Anyways, there... that is the history of my cyber name :)
