Hagar
And for some reason I find myself blogging about the word haggard on
this day. And who or what is a haggard, as I think that it has
something to do with the worn out older lady or something like that. Or
to look worn out, maybe. And what's up with that term hagar the
horrible, who's that? Does Wikipedia, that internet bible dictionary
have an entry for that one. And the origin of this word being related
to that lady Hagar in that book the bible whose story was something
about an egyptian slave girl who was thrown by the wayside on the road
by her husband after she was all used up or something like that. And
her name also seems to have something to do with children and
descendants of children. And so that is a mystical interesting word to
me. And now what about Hagar the horrible, who or what is that all
about again? Well according to Wikipedia again, that has something to
do with some caveman in a comic strip. And then there's hag, and I've
heard that term used before amongst humanity also, as in old hag, the
witch. And are these greek mythological words with lots of hidden
mystical meanings. Are there some sort of philosophies to go along with
these and the origins of these words. Folktales, folklore and
fairytales, creatures, gods and goddesses. Have a great blogging day.
