I'm one of the coolest people you could ever know in this life time. I'm reserved and quiet, but can laugh with the best of them. I’m a “dog person†and spend most of my life trying to “do the right thing†and not hurt anyone. I think that is something that the world is trying to get back to. I believe that everything you do comes back to you. Sometimes not how you sow it in the first place, but where it counts, or will count, for you. I also believe in letting your hair down once in a while. You can’t stress all the time. The only purpose it serves is in aging you. You have to be spontaneous at least once a month if not once a week. I'm a musician, and a writer. Sometimes I am the life of the party and sometimes I like a little alone time to collect my thoughts and mull over things. I’m a product of a military family from WWI to this new war; it’s just the three of us left now, my mother, sister, and me, in our immediate family. I took some time out from NASSCO as a production welder to further my education. I have a pretty strong personality and full character, but I’m loyal to the tried and true, and believe in team effort in achieving goals. Success is determined by the strong and good values you grow up with. It’s what pulls you out of the murky swamp, when the object is designed for you to fall; “The pit you dig for your brother, you fall into yourself.†I believe in the bible, I’m a fourth generation, class taught, Christian Scientist; Church of Christ, Scientist. Yes, ‘I’m a woman of the cloth, without the cloth.’ As notated by my language once in a while; pardon my French. Yet, I don’t veer too far from it, regardless of the wishes of the few. After many years, hearing stories from my family and previous generations; my family has seen all kinds of Christian Warfare’s. They all have the same effect and end.br>

10) My favorite Quotes or Statements:
Albert Einstein -
"Great spirits have often encountered violent opposition from weak minds."
"Any intelligent fool can make things bigger, more complex, and more violent. It takes a touch of genius -- and a lot of courage -- to move in the opposite direction."
"Everything should be made as simple as possible, but not simpler."
"Education is what remains after one has forgotten everything he learned in school."
"No, this trick won't work...How on earth are you ever going to explain in terms of chemistry and physics so important a biological phenomenon as first love?"
"The most beautiful thing we can experience is the mysterious. It is the source of all true art and all science. He to whom this emotion is a stranger, who can no longer pause to wonder and stand rapt in awe, is as good as dead: his eyes are closed."
"A man's ethical behavior should be based effectually on sympathy, education, and social ties; no religious basis is necessary. Man would indeed be in a poor way if he had to be restrained by fear of punishment and hope of reward after death."
"The further the spiritual evolution of mankind advances, the more certain it seems to me that the path to genuine religiosity does not lie through the fear of life, and the fear of death, and blind faith, but through striving after rational knowledge."
"A human being is a part of a whole, called by us _universe_, a part limited in time and space. He experiences himself, his thoughts and feelings as something separated from the rest... a kind of optical delusion of his consciousness. This delusion is a kind of prison for us, restricting us to our personal desires and to affection for a few persons nearest to us. Our task must be to free ourselves from this prison by widening our circle of compassion to embrace all living creatures and the whole of nature in its beauty."
On The Bible -
"Always be prepared to give an answer to everyone who asks you the reason for the HOPE that you have."
"As often as you did it to one of the least of My brothers and sisters, you did it to Me."
"Hold The Thought Of What You Are - To Guide You Into What You Want To Be."
