To remind your birthday guest, I want to tell them what your name means. The name Maria is an alternate version of the Hebrew name Miriam, "bitter, rebellion." An understanding of the meaning must be useful for your chosen area of expertise. I can tell that by looking over the articles which you are writing. You have told me that your Japanese maiden name "Shimizu" means "pure water" which is the fountain of life. You need that to sustain you through life and through dealing with many of the hard times of history.
