About Me


First off let me say that I am blessed and immensely thankful to God, the Great Spirit, for my many blessings! I am blessed with and attached for life to a beautiful lady who is a daily inspiration and joy to be around. You can see my Love, GentleAngel, in the slideshow above. I am very proud of her and honored to be with her. She's so kind and loving. She's beautiful too, eh?
I am blessed for having a pretty happy childhood with lots of fond memories growing up in the South. I have travelled the opposite of a snowbird to cold country. It's an experience that I'm enjoying, for I do find great pleasure in trying different things and living life to the max. I'm old enough to know a few things about life, yet I'm young enough to still be learning..always learning. I'm blessed for having the experiences, whether good or bad, which have gotten me to this point.
I also am culturally and racially mixed and am blessed for this. My heritage includes european (english, scottish, irish, german) and native american (lakota sioux). I was raised white due to political and social reasons, mainly to do with societal prejudice and familial fear. So I'm learning now about the rich native american culture that I come from. I am very proud of my heritage in its entirety.
I am also blessed with an open mind which has me taking the good Christian base I grew up with and expanding it to include many religious thoughts and world philosophies.

My Interests

..I have many interests, but the top two would be those of a spiritual and supernatural nature. I believe in love and respect for all living beings in their many beautiful shapes, colors and forms. I want to emphasize the word LOVE here as it cannot be said too many times that this is a very powerful ingredient to living life on this planet. I think that we are all connected to a greater power, an entity which I refer to as God or the Great Spirit, who is that most perfect form of LOVE. Thus, as I feel we are all connected, I encourage respect for diversity and work toward interfaith & interracial peacemaking. The more we love, the better our world becomes. LOVE heals, transforms, rejuvenates, unites, makes what seems impossible possible...it is the most positive force alive!

I believe in things unseen and that there are dimensions beyond what we know as life on earth.


You Are a Prophet Soul
You are a gentle soul, with good intentions toward everyone. Selfless and kind, you have great faith in people. Sometimes this faith can lead to disappointment in the long run. No matter what, you deal with everything in a calm and balanced way. You are a good interpreter, very sensitive, intuitive, caring, and gentle. Concerned about the world, are good at predicting people's feelings. A seeker of wisdom, you are a life long learner looking for purpose and meaning. You are a great thinker and communicator, but not necessarily a doer.
Souls you are most compatible with: Bright Star Soul and Dreaming Soul What Kind of Soul Are You?

Good conservation and protection of our earth and animals are also important to me. I respect and honor the earth as a grandparent and those things of the earth as brothers and sisters.

I'd like to meet:

...people who are particularly interested in peaceful, loving existences. I encourage and welcome those of different cultures, races, sexual orientations, and religions. Also anyone who believes in or is interested in the supernatural is welcome. I also absolutely love people who are creative, so if you're into music, art, writing, and the like, please introduce yourself...

Music:

..I love music! My musical interests are as varied as my heritage. I absolutely love all kinds of music!!

Movies:

..Dead Poet's Society~We don't read and write poetry because it's cute. We read and write poetry because we are members of the human race. And the human race is filled with passion. And medicine, law, business, engineering – these are noble pursuits and necessary to sustain life. But poetry, beauty, romance, love – these are what we stay alive for.
The Sixth Sense~I see dead people.
Steel Magnolias~Smile, it enhances your face value.
A River Runs Through It~But when I am alone in the half light of the canyon all existence seems to fade to a being with my soul and memories. And the sounds of the Big Black Foot River and a four count rhythm and the hope that a fish will rise. Eventually, all things merge into one, and a river runs through it. The river was cut by the world's great flood and runs over rocks from the basement of time. On some of the rocks are timeless raindrops. Under the rocks are the words, and some of the words are theirs. I am haunted by waters.
A Beautiful Mind~Perhaps it is good to have a beautiful mind, but an even greater gift is to discover a beautiful heart.

Television:

..I enjoy Ghost Whisperer, Most Haunted, Psychic Detectives, Haunting Evidence, and Medium. (Can you tell what I love??? LOL)

Books:

..The Tibetan Book of the Dead..Black Elk Speaks.. Stand Like Mountain, Flow Like Water.. The Seven Spiritual Laws of Success...just a few of my faves...I am an AVID reader!!

Heroes:
