The Portrait

What Hamed asks of its bearer

At the opening of Hamed stands Ha (soft): an outward presence that breathes. At the interior, Alif brings an originary axis at the interior; Meem brings an interior of love and water. These are the hidden weathers of the name. And Hamed closes on Dal: the life resolves through guidance and return. The bearer is asked to inhabit each letter consciously, until praiser is not what the name says but what the life shows.
