I am here for Friends

About Me

I've been happily married for four years! Loving every minute of my husband and cat named Hercules. My husband and I met @ church and never thought he would ever like me that way because he was quite a bit older than me (by 5 1/2 yrs);so we became friends. Little by little we would visit with friends out of the church walls. Finally the day came that would wonderfully change my inscure life forever. He asked me out just as friends I was thinking, but he said that the outing would be just the two of us and he asked if that was okay w/ me. Very surprised I nervously agreed and he took me to my favorite restaurant, Olive Garden, and then to his favotie hobby golfing. The day of truth, he called my house (my mom's house) asked to speak to my mother instead of me, I thought that peculiar. Found out that he told my mother before telling me that he had feelings for me and asked her if that was okay to persue me. My mother was very pleased as she would always invite him out to lunch with the family after service. As my mother handed the phone to me she grinned and I was wondering what was up! He explained what he told my mother and was very careful to explain how he felt that he forgot to give me a chance to reply about how I felt. After that we dated and the rest is history!!!!!!!.........not really just very much enjoying the present. I enjoy music because it allows a free expression of my love for JESUS Christ. You can't express that love through religion b/c religion is man made. It's mans effort to become closer to God. You can only get close to God through His son Jesus, whom God sent to give us a hope and eternal as well as abundent life. Because God has blessed my Husband (he plays bass, and drums)and I (I play auxillary percussion, drums, violin, some vocal abilities)with these gifts, we can add these gifts and even choreography to any ministry if needed. My best friend Corrie is one of my favorite singers and artists, and I hope she will soon make a living expressing her love for Christ as well! My hope is that my Husband and I will be involved with her music ministry in some way. I'm proud to be a part of the Cuban community. Thanks to my father I am half Cuban. The other...thanks to mom, is all a jumble. My sister and I were visiting Miami to see my Dad. As we entered near Coral Gables area my dad warned us about people rioting and being noisy in the streets because that was the very first word of Castro passing away. I mean he was even giving "his power" over to his brother. Wow this meant somehing big to this Miami area. There were cars honking, people out in the streets waving Cuban flags all so very happy. It was like a big party atmoshpere @ 11:30pm!!! I couldn't believe that the day we chose and the time we chose to go visit my Cuban father and grandfather in Miami was the very day and time of the first mention of Castros' down fall. This would go down in history and we were in the middle of the festive mood. Although we were excited about the news for the Cuban people, to possibly have a chance to have freedom for the first time, I thought about how Castro was a human being like any one of us. He was also one person in the whole world that Jesus had died for, so that Castro could live an eternal life with his Creator, as Jesus did for all of us individually...now that's somehting to think about and let digest.
