About Me

- Myspace Layouts
Eveyone has shit, we all do. Call it what you want - baggage, history, pain. How you deal with it, that's what defines you, transforms you from just another yuppie, soccer toting mom with too many hours and too little meaning into a truly caring soul with wisdom and empathy. For every person, regardless of station or creed. Humanity is anything but tangible when you can't be real. I'm finally, finally in a place where I love my life - shit and all. I love to feel it all, pain and reward. Knowledge is its own reward, and my hope is that everyone will one day be in the same place, and realise life's just too unbeliveably fleeting to be bitter, crappy to people, and judgemental. I don't know how the hell I ever got to be 37 when I wasn't looking, but damn it, I'm finally going to let it go and be real. I've joined, I'm here, and I'm ready.

My Interests

I'd like to meet:

YOU.
When you look at me, what do you see?
When you listen to me, what do you hear?
Do you know, really know, that the deeper I breathe, the higher I float? or would you have me hold my breath and sink lower into myself?
Are my scars ugly to you? do they mark me as disfigured and damaged? or are they a part of my beauty?
Will you let me be silent, or compel me to speak?
Will you wait for me at the summit, or would you drive me to climb?
And would I make the descent on my own, once again?

ME
When I see you, I see myself.
When I listen to you, I hear your humanity.
I know that the deeper you feel, the higher I float. And I will never grasp your face, your lungs, and keep you from breath.
Your scars are my roadmap. They mark you as my inspiration. They are your gift to me, when you allow me to touch them.
I will let you be silent, and never compel you to speak.
I will be your walking stick for the whole journey, and bandage your blisters. And celebrate your arrival at the summit. And then carry you back down.

And I will be forever changed.

Pets and kids...

I was asked the other day to elaborate on a comment I'd made to woman at a local off leash park who took exception to the fact that I disagreed with her position on the outright ban of certain breeds ...
