at first i wanted 409 (already taken when i applied for my numbers) because "409" was the name of my very first horse I started riding when i did equestrian riding--my first "horsepower".

my current 814 is a bit more complicated. one of my favorite verses 1 Corinthians 16:14. "Let all that you do be done in love." it was quite difficult to figure out how to make those into 3 digits. so i just combined 1+1+6, 14 to get 814. chose to stick with it b/c it grew on me and i also didn't want people to confuse my reason for 409 with the cleaner :|
