Sweet like candy to my soul. Sweet you rock, and sweet you roll.

About Me


Twisted Musings (poetry from age 12-18)
Wicked Wanderings (poetry from age 18-24)

My Interests

All that enlivens the ether. Thunderstorms, lightning, yoga, channeling, music, spiritualizing, laughter, crazy dancing, mayan mochas, jamming, long walks, singing, good advice, candles, moonlit vistas, warm breezes, smiles that light up the universe, extra long hugs, delicious meaningful conversations, nirvana in a kiss, I love you voicemails, irish pub singing, deep centeredness, feeling someone's body heat, feeling someone's heartbeat, raspberry martinis, pomegranates!, unexplained phenomena, undeniable passion, pleasant surprises, walking in the rain, deer in the forest, buddhas and mirrorballs, dancing in firelight, dark chocolate from Madagascar, hibiscus leaves from the Nile, bactrian princesses, empowering human beings, curling up with a good book, halloween playfulness, chasing clouds with a camera, amused by others, forgiving and discovering, curious debates and philosophizing, persian mandolins and tribal drumming, jasmine, myrrh and lavender, fields of flowers, singing in the shower, rock n' roll records, my crazy gypsy family, my father's smile, my mother's eyes, my constant evolution, and the valley of sound.

I'd like to meet:

Kind to others, down for a cause, generosity of spirit, gracious and at ease. Passionate and creative, inspired and reflective, humble and electrifying, forces walking to their own beat. Soulful and compassionate, gentle and deliberate, sexy and of non-judgement, spiritual and balanced, unabashed and cultural, conscious of the global, seeing no defeat. Searching and discovering, open to silver lining, self-honoring, self governing. Renegades setting souls free. ;)
