Your first name of Brightmon creates a quick, clever mind capable of grasping and assimilating new ideas. You crave friendship, understanding, love, and affection but your reserved manner appears forbidding to others. You have a sensitive nature--sensitive to your environment and particularly sensitive to how your deeper and more serious interests are regarded by others. Your feelings are easily hurt and so, to protect yourself, you withdraw within the realm of your private thoughts. Often you are drawn to the out of doors as a coping mechanism for bouts of loneliness and moods. From an early age you have desired a home, family, and related responsibilities, and although you are not demonstrative in your affections you have a strong sense of love and protection for those in your care. Craving understanding, love, and affection but disinclined to verbalize your emotions, you may appear cold and aloof to those who would offer kindness. You can give expression to your personal thoughts and feelings most fluently through the written word. Moods, which are your worst enemy, result. It is often only through writing that you open up and convey your deepest feelings and true appreciation for those you love.
