In short, I don't think everyone's greek letters stand for the same thing. Every Alpha doesn't mean the same in ritual, etc.

A lot of us do that, though.....
AKL = Affiliation Kindled for Life
ASA = Aspire, Seek, Attain
AST = Active, Self Reliant, Trustworthy
DG = Do Good
and I'm sure there are more..... I think that's great. A good way to show PNMs that (a) our letters have special meaning, but not give it away and (b) demonstrate that our letters mean different things. Not only are there several meanings to the same letters, but that the group means different things to different members.
