Use all of your senses to experience the world and then freely express your own sacred understanding

About Me


This profile was edited with MySpaceGrill Editor
I can be a bit of a WILD CHILD, but honestly "generousity of spirit" is the only thing that is really important to me. If you have a generous quality in your heart you have everything! -------I make lots of time for good music, good food, good art, good love'n ----- I've won the 'Lucy Award" enough times that I finally just dyed my hair red.----- I'm relaxed and have a wicked humor as long as I'm with a small group of people, but put me with a large group and I become a wallflower; very shy indeed! ----- I prefer friends who balance me out; people who love the limelight in a crowd but are maybe a little shy one-on-one. ----- Favourites - - fave touch = the slow dance, that connection through music with a strong arm low on my waist mmmmm - - fave sound = laughter, genuine 'right from the toes' laughter - - fave sight = seeing that 'after-glow' haze in my lover's eyes the next morning - - fave smell = hot hot HOT muggy day just before the thunder storm - - fave taste = something I haven't tried before!

My Interests

To many interests to list! Art: painting, drawing, and raku (check out my photos)- Writing: creative and academic - Anthropology and archaeology - Listening to music - Kayaking, hiking - and best of all...COOKING!!! This year's goal: learning snowboarding - waahooo.

Mahatma Ghandhi would have been extraordinary to meet.Other than that, most extraordinary people are right in front of us, we meet them every day.As an artist, writer, anthropologist I'd like to meet people who are using all their senses to experience the world and then freely expressing their own sacred understanding.
