Inheriting the Earth... Meekness, tenderness and kindness are not signs of weakness and despair, but manifestations of great strength and resolution. It’s those that have their spirits bridled by Christ who will land the land. Try not to take life Too seriously, just remember who you are and what you stand for.
Being able to laugh & enjoy the present is important to me. I feel that you can create happiness in just about anything you do, let go of yourself & enjoy that which surrounds you. I am optimistic & I always try to look for the good in others but, don't let that fool ya, discernment is a beautiful thing. About Me? A few words that come to mind are... happy, warm, laid back, honest, smart, funny, person of integrity, good listener, tenderhearted, generous & kind. I was born and raised in So.CA Channel Islands area. I've been living in Nash,Tn for 11yrs now. I am very close to my family & friends. I am blessed to have two awesome children 15 & 11yrs old. I love, I love, I love my kids and they are so fun to be around. I teach them the past while they teach me the future as well as some of the things I've forgotten. I am so grateful and so very blessed to have such a calling in this life. I am athletic and luv the outdoors especially if it has to do with the water. I can do a rooster water skiing just as good as any dude.;) I love to travel when I get the opportunity. I am in the process of becoming a certified personal fitness trainer and I love it. I have always found interest in psychology and read just about anything I come across. I like getting into things, see how they work, working with my hands (No, I am not afraid to get them dirty.lol) Being there for my family & friends, helping others, reading to children, belly dancing, gardening, home improvement, decorating, cooking, Art, film/photography, working out, getting out, dancing, live music, running, roller skating, bowling, horseback riding. Other favorites are a warm beach, salt air, sunsets, luv animals, good music, candles, fine wine, sashimi, Baja fish tacos, Mediterranean cuisine, bubble baths, wild orchids, the smell of the ocean, fresh cut wood, rain, sagebrush, thunderstorms, nature & pleasant company.I believe in the lord Jesus Christ and his teachings. You know who you are and He does too! Although we may be on our own...I don't believe that we can make it to heaven or through this life alone or that we were put here on this earth just to serve ourselves, but to learn who we are as well as to make life a little less difficult for each other. I believe that you can be very spiritual and religious without any conflict of the two. Religion is a way of life... The way you live IS your religion. Choices... That's all. It is when we step outside and forget about ourselves is when we truly get it! Thank you for taking the time to read a little bit about a potentially new friend.;) I honor the place in you which the entire universe dwells. I honor the place in you which is of love, truth, light and peace. When you are in the place in you and I am in that place in me, (then together) We are one..."Go now, therefore, and teach ye all nations. Teach that what you do for another, you do for your Self, and what you fail to do for another, you fail to do for your Self. Do unto others as you would have it done unto you, because it is being done unto you! That is the Golden Rule. And now you understand it completely."

My Interests

Open your eyes to see the beauty around you, open your mind to the wonders of life, open your heart to those who love you, and to yourself... Always Be True."One common mistake is to think that one reality is THE reality. You must always be prepared to leave one reality for a greater one.""The difference between perception and reality is Honesty."Life's Little Instructions: ? pray until something happens ? sing in the shower ? treat everyone you meet like you want to be treated ? watch a sunrise at least twice a year ? leave the toilet seat in the down position ? strive for excellence, not perfection ? compliment 3 people every day ? never waste an opportunity to tell someone you love them ? leave everything a little better than you found it ? keep it simple ? think big thoughts but relish small pleasures ? become the most positive and enthusiastic person you know ? floss your teeth ? the art of being wise is the art of knowing what to overlook. be forgiving of yourself and others ? say "thank you" a lot ? say "please" a lot ? avoid negative people. be around those who will encourage you to be the person that you are suppose to become ? HUG your children? remember other people's birthdays ? commit yourself to constant improvement ? carry jumper cables in your trunk ? have a firm handshake ? send cards thru the mail. sign them, "SOMEONE WHO THINKS YOU'RE TERRIFIC" ? look people in the eye ? be the first to say "hello" ? plant flowers every spring ? have a dog ? make new friends but cherish the old ones ? keep secrets ? always accept an outstretched hand ? stop blaming others ? take responsibility for every area of your life ? be there when people need you ? feed a stranger ? don't expect life to be fair ? never underestimate the power of love ? live your life, know that it's your turn and you Do have a purpose, make it a good one ? don't be afraid to say, "I made a mistake" ? don't be afraid to say, "I don't know" ? compliment even small improvements ? keep your promises (no matter what) ? marry only for love and someone you love to talk to because in the end, this is all that will matter ? rekindle your friends ? count your blessings ? have gratitude and appreciation ? call your mother ? Well done is better then well said. The minute you settle for less than you deserve, you get even less then you settled for. Its not whether you get knocked down, its whether you get back up. live your life and enjoy it ? BELIEVE IN YOURSELF: If you don't take control of your life don't complain when others do. Remember, if you don't want to be with yourself why should anyone else? There are no impossible dreams, just our limited perception of what is possible ? what lies behind and what lies ahead are small measures of what lies within ? You have to pay close attention to what you love, and never listen to anyone who tells you to be practical too early in the GAME. You don't need a loud voice to be heard, all you need is something worthwhile to say and it's not the words you use, it's the message you deliver. Fallings part of the game, no matter how good you are, the ice is still slippery. DARE TO BELIEVE: You have to have emptiness before it can be filled, growth requires experience, hold on to the good and avoid every kind of evil ? The only way to discover the limits of the possible is to go beyond them ? There are two kinds of people in this world, either you get it or you don't! Stand for something or risk falling for anything ? Don't talk about others, if they talk about you, It's none of your business and it only means that you are two steps ahead ? Know that the only people you need in your life are the ones that need you in theirs. It's all in the choosing & that goes for Happiness as well. Live, love and laugh alot & remember at the end of the day, it is the relationships you have with those you love that matter the most. It is so simple, yet so easily forgotten. Value them!***** BE SOMEONE ****Be someone who listens, and you will be heard. Be someone who cares, and you will be loved. Be someone who gives, and you will be blessed. Be someone who comforts, and you will know peace.Be someone who genuinely seeks to understand, and you will be wise. Be someone kind, someone considerate, and you will be admired. Be someone who values truth, and you will be respected. Be someone who takes action, and you will move life forward.Be someone who lifts others higher, and your life will be rich. Be someone filled with gratitude, and there will be no end to the things for which you'll be thankful.Be someone who lives with joy, with purpose, as your own light brightly shines. Be, in every moment, the special someone you are truly meant to be.Yesterday is but a dream, and tomorrow is only a vision, but today well lived makes every yesterday a dream of happiness and every tomorrow a vision of hope."The human spirit needs places where nature has not been rearranged by the hand of man.”"You will come to know that what appears today to be a sacrifice will prove instead to be the greatest investment that you will ever make."Love is but the discovery of ourselves in others, and the delight in the recognition RECOVER YOUR HAPPINESSA--Accept Accept others for who they are and for the choices they've made even if you have difficulty understanding their beliefs, motives, or actions.B--Break Away Break away from everything that stands in the way of what you hope to accomplish with your life.C--Create Create a family of friends whom you can share your hopes, dreams, sorrows, and happiness with.D--Decide Decide that you'll be successful and happy come what may, and good things will find you.

You are also here to serve yourself, to heal your karma, to enable your soul's growth and reconnect to the Source. Your challenge is to find a balance between serving others and yourself so that you can accomplish the tasks that you established for yourself in this lifetime and even go beyond that. How you view your role in serving others is an important part of this process."
Your Birth Month is February

Peaceful and harmonious, you seek the gentle side of life..

Your warmth and consideration touches many.

Your soul reflects: Purity, modesty, and faithfulness.

Your gemstone: Amethyst

Your flower: Iris

Your colors: Purple, yellow, and light blue

~~~~~~~ You Are Like A Mermaid ~~~~~~~

You are a free spirit You tend to be a bit shy and hidden away at times. You are intuitive, feeling more than most. Once you get to know people you trust them completely and in return you are loyal to them. You're a happy person who's both nice and helpful. Quiet, yet smart- you often observe things first before taking part.If I could define enlightenment briefly I would say "it is the quiet acceptance of what is."Total physical and mental inertia are highly agreeable, much more so than we allow ourselves to imagine. A beach not only permits such inertia but enforces it, thus neatly eliminating all problems of guilt. It is now the only place in our overly active world that does."Too often we underestimate the power of a touch, a smile, a kind word, a listening ear, an honest compliment, or the smallest act of caring, all of which have the potential to turn a life around."Your Aura Is Blue Your Personality: Your natural warmth and intuition nurtures those around you. You are accepting and always follow your heart. You in Love: Relationships are your top priority, and this includes love. You are most happy when you are serious with someone. Your Career: You need to help others in your job to feel satistifed. You would be a great nurse, psychologist, or counselor.The things that we share in our world are far more valuable than those which divide us.

Your purpose in life is to express your unique self.

You are a creative and artistic person with an interesting view on life.
Witty and outgoing, you enjoy sharing your crazy ideas with anyone who will listen.

In love, you inspire and enchant your partner. You are often an object of fantasy and desire.

While you are very talented, you sometimes lack the ambition to put your talents in play.
And while your wit carries you a long way, you occasionally use it to mask your true feelings.
Your natural abilities can bring you all the success in the world ... if you let them What Is Your Life Path Number?

I'd like to meet:

I am interested in meeting people who are true in heart and understand that the first cornerstone is mutual respect to one another. Who are kind, down to earth, fun, humorous, creative and open minded. As for the rest... Don't be afraid to be in tune... Just be yourself. You shouldn't have to sacrifice who you are just because someone else may have a problem with it. "The most important kind of freedom is to be what you really are. You trade in your reality for a role. You give up your ability to feel, and in exchange, put on a mask." - Jim Morrison ... Wings Our Hopes And Teaches Us How To Fly. ** Love is not blind- it sees more, not less, but because it sees more, it is willing to see less. ** To Love Someone Is To Learn The Song That's In Their Heart Then, To Sing It Back To Them When They Have Forgotten.The Greatest Thing You'll Ever Learn Is Just To Love And Be Loved In Return. "We don’t have to think alike to love alike."“Love means to commit oneself without guarantee, to give oneself completely in the hope that our love will produce love in the loved person. Love is an act of faith, and whoever is of little faith is also of little love.”
Faith is not knowing what the future holds but knowing who holds the future... It is trust in what the spirit has learned eons ago... It is the true source of inner strength."Gratitude unlocks the fullness of life. It turns what we have into enough, and more. It turns denial into acceptance, chaos into order, confusion into clarity.... It turns problems into gifts, failures into success, the unexpected into perfect timing, and mistakes into important events. Gratitude makes sense of our past, brings peace for today and creates a vision for tomorrow."A man see's in the world what he carries in his heart.May the teachings of those you admire become part of you, so that you may call upon them. Remember, those whose lives you have touched and who have touched yours are always a part of you, even if the encounters were less than you would have wished. It is the content of the encounter that is more important than its form. May you not become too concerned with material matters, but instead place immeasurable value on the goodness in your heart. Find time in each day to see beauty and love in the world around you. Realize that each person has limitless abilities, but each of us is different in our own way. What you may feel you lack in one regard may be more than compensated for in another. What you feel you lack in the present may become one of your strengths in the future. May you see your future as one filled with promise and possibility. Learn to view everything as a worthwhile experience. May you find enough inner strength to determine your own worth by yourself, and not be dependent on another's judgment of your accomplishments, May you always feel loved.Now that we have been given the truth, we have a responsibility...to understand how are actions impact the world, ourselves, and our loved ones. Can we honestly look back, when we have been given the precious gift of clarity?....Now is the time for all of us to make a difference...isn't that such an innate drive in all of us?..really, to make a Difference ..to create change, to evoke new realities…"I believe all suffering is caused by ignorance. People inflict pain on others in the selfish pursuit of their happiness or satisfaction. Yet true happiness comes from a sense of peace and contentment, which in turn must be achieved through the cultivation of altruism, of love and compassion, and elimination of ignorance, selfishness, and greed." - Dalai LamaLove Is A LifestyleWhat you appreciate grows. A universal reality is that in nature, all that grows is fed and that which is stuck, dies. This is true of a tree, a flower or anything in nature. That while there is an adaptation, a progress all harm is diverted from that specie. In our lives, it is so easy to become ambitious to the point of self righteousness. We can so easily begin to want things, want to change things, (including ourselves) and as a result, forget to be thankful for what we have. In relationship, it is so easy to focus on what could be, and forget what is. We can become complacent, and only recognize what we have when it is lost. What we don't appreciate, we lose. What we appreciate grows. This is why love as a lifestyle is so important. Love is a cumulative thing and therefore, forgetfulness or clumsiness in a relationship results in its depreciation. Every act, every thought, every consideration must show appreciation. This is the true art of romance. Thank you is not enough. Love is not a thought, love is an action. We love by doing, we love by appreciative action. It is not love to think love. Thinking love is thinking. Love, appreciation is action. Small acts, daily acts, momentary acts of kindness and appreciation. What you feel in your heart, and therefore the activity you bring to your relationship, determines the length of it. That people become as you treat them is a given. That appreciating someone requires humility is also understood by most. However, what is not clear is that challenge is appreciation and that wanting or expecting anything in return for our giving is manipulation. True appreciation means you wish to change nothing at all. With the first 4 keys you unlock the beauty, you see the magnificence in your partner and yourself, with this last key, you live it. ConclusionWe cannot defy nature. If we become her enemy we sabotage all we wish for. Our hopes and dreams, our love and passion must live in harmony with the laws of nature. This is the meaning of Sacred Love.
You Are Midnight
You are more than a little eccentric, and you're apt to keep very unusual habits.
Whether you're a nightowl, living in a commune, or taking a vow of silence - you like to experiment with your lifestyle.
Expressing your individuality is important to you, and you often lie awake in bed thinking about the world and your place in it.
You enjoy staying home, but that doesn't mean you're a hermit. You also appreciate quality time with family and close friends. What Time Of Day Are You?**************** TO ALL OF MY FRIENDS *****************People come into your life for a REASON, a SEASON, or a LIFETIMEWhen you figure out which it is, you know exactly what to do. When someone is in your life for a REASON, it is usually to meet a need you have expressed outwardly or inwardly. They have come to assist you through difficulty, to provide you with guidance and support, to aid you physically, emotionally, or spiritually. They may seem like a godsend, and they are. They are here for the reason you need them to be. Then, without and wrongdoing on your part or at an inconvenient time, this person will say or do something to bring the relationship to an end. Sometimes they die. Sometimes they walk away. Sometimes they act up or out and force you to take a stand. What we realize is our need has been met, and our desire fulfilled; their work is done. The prayer you sent up has been answered and it is now time to move on.When people come into your life for a SEASON, it is because your turn has come to share, grow, or learn. They bring you an experience of peace or make you laugh. They teach you something you have never done. They usually give you an unbelievable amount of joy and happiness. Believe it!! It is real! But only for a seasonLIFETIME relationships teach you lifetime lessons; those things you must build upon in order to have a solid emotional foundation. Your job is to accept the lesson, love the person; and put what you have learned to use in all other relationships and areas of your life. It is said that love is blind but friendship has a special sense. Thank you for being a part of my life, whether you are:... a reason, a season or a lifetime friend...I am, with love and faith, what keeps you going through times of despair. 'Hope sees the invisible, feels the intangible and achieves the impossible.' --Anonymous 'Learn from yesterday, live for today, hope for tomorrow. The important thing is to not stop questioning.' --Albert Einstein 'Everything that is done in the world is done by hope.' --Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. 'Every area of trouble gives out a ray of hope; and the one unchangeable certanity is that nothing is certain or unchangeable.' --John Fitzgerald Kennedy Do You Still Have Hope If you can look at the sunset and smile, then you still have hope... If you can find beauty in the colors of a small flower, then you still have hope... If you can find pleasure in the movement of a butterfly, then you still have hope... If the smile of a child can still warm your heart, then you still have hope... If you can see the good in other people, then you still have hope... If the rain breaking on a roof top can still lull you to sleep, then you still have hope... If the sight of a rainbow still makes you stop and stare in wonder, then you still have hope... If the soft fur of a favored pet still feels pleasant under your fingertips, then you still have hope... If you meet new people with a trace of excitement and optimism, then you still have hope... If you give people the benefit of a doubt, then you still have hope... If you still offer your hand in friendship to others that have touched your life, then you still have hope... If receiving an unexpected card or letter still brings a pleasant surprise, then you still have hope... If the suffering of others still fills you with pain and frustration, then you still have hope... If you refuse to let a friendship die, or accept that it must end, then you still have hope... If you look forward to a time or place of quiet and reflection, then you still have hope... If you still buy the ornaments, put up the Christmas tree or cook the turkey, then you still have hope... If you still watch love stories or want the endings to be happy, then you still have hope... If you can look to the past and smile, then you still have hope.... If, when faced with the bad, when told everything is futile, you can still look up and end the conversation with the phrase... yeah....BUT. . Then you still have hope... Hope is such a marvelous thing. It bends, it twists, it sometimes hides, but rarely does it break... It sustains us when nothing else can... It gives us reason to continue and courage to move ahead, when we tell ourselves we'd rather give in... Hope puts a smile on our face when the heart cannot manage... Hope puts our feet on the path when our eyes cannot see it... Hope moves us to act when our souls are confused of the direction... . Hope is a wonderful thing, something to be cherished and nurtured, and something that will refresh us in return... And it can be found in each of us, and it can bring light into the darkest of places... Never lose hope...
