(Loia is pronounced “Loy”)
Write about the significance and meaning of your name.. etymology.. etc..
I was given two names…
—one stands…
—one speaks…
Bryan holds the ground…
Loia says the thing…
Somewhere between the two…
—I live…
—I write…
Song Of Solomon 4:16… “awake.. north wind.. come south wind!
blow on my garden… that its fragrance may spread… everywhere…”

This is beautifully minimal and deeply intentional. The way you let your names become metaphors—one rooted, one expressive—creates a quiet tension that feels honest and lived-in. That space “between the two” is powerful; it’s where identity, voice, and creation meet. Subtle, thoughtful, and very you.

Thank you truly.. Vijay — victory… conqueror… you live up to your name.. my friend.. You always leave the kind of words that feel earned… not thrown… and they land exactly where they’re meant to… You have a gift for seeing the heart of things — and for naming them gently… I’m grateful for that… truly…

Thank you… truly.
Words like that aren’t just compliments—they’re a kind of shared stillness, and I don’t take them lightly.
If anything I offer feels “earned,” it’s because I’m meeting you where you already are, listening before speaking, naming what’s there without trying to reshape it. I’m grateful you felt seen rather than spoken at.
Friendship like this—quiet, sincere, unforced—is its own kind of victory. I’m glad to share it with you.
