I've walked for miles and miles to get through all this pain, but I'm okay

About Me

I am me and that is who I am. It is hard define myself in words because I don’t think there are words to describe me. I believe myself to be anything I want to be. On good days I know that I will have everything I desire in this world on bad days not so much. I am complex yet easy to read. I am simple yet hard, I am easy to get to know once you get through the walls I have built around myself. I am the youngest of five children grew up in a small steel town in Ohio. I was raised to know the world while for the most part staying in my safe haven most of us growing up called the ghetto (why did we call it that I don’t know we were young and thought it was cool). When I was able to get out I did, I went to Hollywood Florida where I lived for several years I also did a stint in St Thomas U.S.V.I. for a bit that I must say was the most interesting of places I have lived. I would say it is a place that was most like me. Then I came back to the place I ran from to begin with and yes I am still here for now. I am a poet it has always been my release in this lifetime. My poetry helps keep me sane if not for that I think I would explode into a million pieces at times. I have spent the better part of my adult life working in architectural casework business which I loved at one time then I began to get burnt out on it. I have taken a short break from it and taken a job where I can just be me I have been helping a friend out who owns a coffee shop here in town, I say helping a friend We should also say she is helping me as well. It has always been my dream to own a coffee shop/spiritual center though I had no idea what it would be like in the coffee business, well now I have been working over there it has changed from my dream to my passion. I have become obsessed with the coffee shop as I thought I would. I could honestly spend 15 hours a day there and never get tired. I am thankful for my friend who gave me the chance to see for myself if it is what I wanted. She will be moving out of state soon and I am sure it will break my heart on so many levels to see her leave but we will always be soul sisters and always know where to find each other in this lifetime. She is an amazing person who has shared herself and her family with us all for the last couple of years and I am very grateful to the universe for giving us the opportunity to connect with her again. That chain will never be broken. Well what else can I say about myself I grow from day to day and evolve into this life I have chosen for myself. Each day is a new awakening for me as I travel my journey. I grow in spirituality as each new sunrise comes my way. My world is my own and my life is ever changing as I create my road maps in life. My life has been touched by many souls who have crossed my path, some in ways I could never explain in human words. These are the ones who I will always carry in me and take with me everywhere I go. For I am in no small part me because you have been you. As always I am yours in Love….[IMG]http://x.myspace.com/images/tos.gif[/IMG]

My Interests

I am a poet and have been writing since I could spell my name. I love nature and spending the evening under the moon so camping is huge on my list. I am a student of metaphysical studies. Religious studies is my passion through learning we come to understand and accept. I consider myself to be simply spiritual. My belief is that where religion seperates us spirituality will bring us back together.See my blog for new poems, or thoughts about life.... I will be posting some new poems in the blog or you can click here and go to my poetry site for more poems. Visit My Poetry Site

I'd like to meet:

I really just like to meet people I find everyone interesting in different ways. You never know who people are going to become to you or you to them. You could never see each other again or they could become so much more to you in your life."What is a friend? A single soul in two bodies." - AristotleTo that I would like to add it doesn't matter who it may be a stranger, a friend, a lover, a sister a brother a Father or a Mother you cannot seperate yourself from each other because you are always and forever ONE... width="425" height="350" ..

Heroes:

First and foremost my Father and Mother they were wonderful people who taught me how to love and be loved.People who take chances even though the outcome may not be known. People who are not afraid to be themselves no matter what other's think. Last but not least people who have been able to open their arms and set others free as painful as it is so that those others may find thier true path's. The timeless ageless poet of Rock Miss Stevie Nicks for her wisdom is great and her strength is admired. She has earned her title of the High Priestess of Rock. Dilana who inspires many to go after their dreams.
