“What’s in a name?”

I’ve heard many interesting interpretations of my blog’s name, “Bottled Ships.”
Because my father has an obsession with boats, I had a friend think the name was subconsciously influenced by my relationship with my father. This thought had never occurred to me. Someone else asked me if I chose the title because a boat inside a bottle has no where to go. It’s ready to sail the world, but it’s confined against its will. I had never thought of that either.
I describe what a bottled ship means to me HERE.
Interpreting the world around you is a way to interpret yourself. What you see says something about who you are. Pay attention to that. You’ll learn a lot about yourself, how you think, and the way your experiences have affected you.
So, what does a bottled ship mean to you?
