My Kind of Designer Bag
Name Spell by Colleen Redman
When it’s spring my name is Colleen Redrobin
In the Fall it’s Redelicious
On the road it’s Redroof Inn
On an vacation island it’s Redpassionflowerwoman
When I’m in love I’m Redmana
When I meditate I’m Redmantra
When I haven’t written in a long time I’m Redmanymoons
When it’s Christmas I’m Rednosereindeer
When I’m feeling prosperous I’m Redmany or Redcarpet treatment
When I’m healing I’m Redmend
When I’m mad I’m C. Red
When I’m bleeding I’m SacRed
Sometimes just for fun I’m Redmandala
Redmania, Redmama or Redmoon
My mailmana is very confused

Post notes: The above is reprinted from a June 2005 post HERE and is estimated to have been written sometime around 1990. I’m reposting it today after being inspiRED by a late Christmas present that arrived in the mail yesterday. Remember the line in the movie Jerry Mcquire when Renee Zellweger’s character says to Tom Cruise’s character, “you had me at hello?” When I opened the package I wanted to say to my sister Tricia who sent it, “You had me at the paper bag.” The bag would have been enough, but there was a present inside it, a translucence red heart with spirals that says InspiRED. The purchase went to helping fight AIDS in Africa.

I think gifts that are gifts to others are great. I’m hearing more about them lately, which is nice to think that we are all realizing that we can make our gifts doubly meaningful by giving this way.

Red is life. I think your name suits you perfectly–in all its variations and moods!

I got some jewelry for Christmas that was made in Uganda, and benefits people with Aids there. A great idea!
