About Me About Me
I’m Sephardi Portuguese but I was living in London, where I have been running a leather fashion goods business. I am now back in Lisbon and living with my father, who has been missing me.
I’m Jewish, if you don’t know what a Sephardi is.
אושר אינו דבר שמגיע מן המוכן, הוא נובע מפעילויותיך – Happiness is not something ready made. It comes from your own actions.
ואהבת לרעך כמוך – Love thy neighbor as thyself.
כל אהבה שהיא תלויה בדבר בטל דבר בטלה אהבה. ושאינה תלויה בדבר אינה בטלה לעולם – Any love that depends upon a thing is annulled if that thing is annulled. Love that does not depend upon a thing will never be annulled.
איזהו גיבור? הכובש את יצרו – Who is the hero? He who conquers his urges.
This Hebrew proverb teaches the importance of discipline.
סייג לחכמה שתיקה – Silence is a fence around wisdom.
This Hebrew proverb means that it is better to remain silent and be thought of as a fool than to speak and remove all the doubt.
My name is Saadia Ana-Maryam (I won't give my family name here!)
Saadia (Arabic: سعدية, Hebrew: סעדיה) or Saadiya is an Arabic, Hebrew and Berber masculine and feminine proper name. It is used as a forename and more rarely as a surname. According to some classical rabbinical sources, the name derives from the Hebrew verb Sa'ad (Hebrew: סעד, support), and means "God has supported". According to researchers at the Wissenschaft des Judentums, however, it is an artificially Hebrewised form of the Arabic name Sa'id (Happy سعيد). It is common that in Arabic-speaking countries, people called Saadia are also known as Sa'id.
Saadia Gaon seems to have been the first to have borne this forename, and is often just referred to as "Saadia," without further explanation; signing himself 'Sa'id ben Yosef' at the beginning of his career, he went on, in his work 'Sefer haGalouï' to call himself "Saadyahou" (סעדיהו). Moses ibn Ezra also uses the form Sa'adel (סעדאל).
My mother’s name is my third name, Maryam or Mariam is the Aramaic form of the biblical name Miriam (the name of the prophetess Miriam, the sister of Moses). It is notably the name of Mary the mother of Jesus. The spelling in the Semitic abjads is mrym (Hebrew מרים, Aramaic ܡܪܝܡ, Arabic مريم), which may be vowelized in a number of ways (Meriem, Miryam, Miriyam, Mirijam, Marium, Maryam, Mariyam, Marijam, Meryem, Merjeme, etc.)
My sister is going home to Israel permanently in May, and Dad and I will be here in Lisbon watching out for her and the rest of civilisation in the face of this terrible world 🌍 situation.
