My parents named me Joy. I've always hated that name. I'm tired of people singing Christmas carols to me as I pass them in the halls. I'm tired of people thinking that I'm a bloody ray of sunshine come to make everything kittens and rainbows. I'm tired of the pain from having to hide my tears. I have decided to change my name. From now on I shall be addressed as J. Atheris Eliason. Or just Atheris. Not Joy. Atheris. If I am called by my the name my parents selected I will respond, but I prefer the name I chose.
