About Me




Love isn't always easy...but, it's usually worth the effort!
Well, I have MANY passions...but here's a little info about me, in case you're curious...
I'm South African by birth, Canadian by nationality & currently living, with my family, in Oregon (which I love).
I do miss the sea, having grown up with it at my doorstep... so, I make a point of getting to the beach whenever I can. It's a part of who I am, and nothing moves me like the thundering of the waves on the beach, the smell of sea air, and sand between my toes.
I enjoy all sorts of people, for all sorts of reasons, but am more than happy with my own company most of the time. I'm not very conventional ...stepford wives scare me...lol!
I try to make sure that the people I love & care about know how I feel...because life is far too short to waste time on would'ves, could'ves, should'ves...and, loved ones should never be taken for granted.
I've met some very cool people online ...and, have plans to meet several of them in person, in the very near future! I CAN'T WAIT!!! Considering how much time we actually do spend together...it's about damn time! LoL!

Stop by my website, sometime, and check it out!

I'd like to meet:

----------------

I'd like to meet all sorts of interesting people - particularly Artists! MySpace is a fascinating way to meet people from all over the world. How cool is it when the real, consistent & intimate relationships begun online become even more so OFFLINE!

I'm interested in those who are willing to interact, share their art and/or their interests, and get to know each other...

Music:



Movies:

Hey...add yourself to my new map/guestbook! It's so cool to see where each of you are...

Television:



Reminds me of the song..."in my mind, I'm going to Carolina...can't you feel the sunshine..."

Books:



“REAL isn't how you are made . . . It's a thing that happens to you. . . . Generally by the time you are REAL, most of your hair has been loved off, and your eyes droop and you get loose in the joints and very shabby. But those things don't matter at all, because once you are REAL you can't be ugly, except to people who don't understand.”

Heroes:

I don't know about heroes...but, there are MANY people that I admire for various reasons. People who are consistently REAL & who know who they are always impress me. Those who are most impressed with themselves...not so much! LoL!

There are also several artists that appeal to me, either for their art and/or their support of the arts. So, this will be my spot for their banners...

I'm really enjoying being a part of this particular site - Brotha Deep features a remarkable variety of artists with direct links to their Spaces - check it out!
