The Portrait

What Taim asks of its bearer

The first letter of Taim is Ta — an outward presence of softness and opening. Through the interior, Ya brings an interior of strong selfhood. These are the hidden weathers of the name. The Meem resolves the name: the life closes in mercy. The work of the name is to let servant/devoted live through every letter — so that his life takes the same shape as his name.
