About Me

I color outside the lines, run with scissors, and always stop to smell the flowers. I am tempted to laugh at inappropriate times. I long for beauty and am fortunate in that I find it in the most simple of things. I am easy to get along with but hard to understand. I believe that laughter is the ultimate aphrodisiac. I am a passionate, sensual, spiritual, emotional being searching for true connections.

Who are YOU?' said the Caterpillar. This was not an encouraging opening for a conversation.

Words to live by....
Teach this triple truth to all: A generous heart, kind speech, and a life of service and compassion are the things which renew humanity. - Buddha
Your life and my life flow into each other as wave flows into wave, and unless there is peace and joy and freedom for you, there can be no real peace or joy or freedom for me. To see reality--not as we expect it to be but as it is--is to see that unless we live for each other and in and through each other, we do not really live very satisfactorily; that there can really be life only where there really is, in just this sense, love. - (Carl) Frederick Buechner
If we do not change our direction we are likely to end up where we are headed for. - Chinese Proverb
I consider that our present sufferings are not worth comparing with the glory that will be revealed in us. Romans 8:18
Willy Wonka: Don't forget what happened to the man who suddenly got everything he always wanted.
Charlie : What happened?
Willy Wonka: He lived happily ever after.
