About Me

glumbert - Women: Know your limits

As a social worker and a mental health therapist I am passionate about helping others to serve their community. I created this space as a resource for my students and friends.

My Interests

Draw a crazy picture, Write a nutty poem, Sing a mumble-gumble song, Whistle through your comb. Do a loony-goony dance' Cross the kitchen floor, Put something silly in the world, That ain't been there before. - Shel Silverstein

I'd like to meet:

The MoonYou can take the moon by the spoonful or in capsules every two hours. It's useful as a hypnotic and sedative and besides it relieves those who have had too much philosophy. A piece of moon in your purse works better than a rabbit's foot. Helps you find a lover or get rich without anyone knowing, and it staves off doctors and clinics. You can give it to children like candy when they've not gone to sleep, and a few drops of moon in the eyes of the old helps them to die in peace.Put a new leaf of moon under your pillow and you'll see what you want to. Always carry a little bottle of air of the moon to keep you from drowning. Give the key to the moon to prisoners and the disappointed. For those who are sentenced to death and for those who are sentenced to life there is no better tonic than the moon in precise and regular doses.Jaime Sabines

I want to help others but I don't want to be poor
