About Me


Lindsey is love. she is pure, honest, spiritual, and loving. she is there for you when you need a shoulder to cry on, and sometimes she'll even cry with you. she's spunky, wierd, crazy, and fun. she's spontaneous and loves to enjoy life and the people around her. Lindsey is like an onion, you have to peel away the layers to truly know her...there's more to her than meets the eye. she is a maidservant of God, and that is all one really needs to know about Lindsey. (Written by Jinous)
The more difficulties one sees in the world the more perfect one becomes. The more you plough and dig the ground the more fertile it becomes. The more you cut the branches of a tree the higher and stronger it grows. The more you put the gold in the fire, the purer it becomes. The more you sharpen the steel by grinding the better it cuts. Therefore, the more sorrows one sees the more perfect one becomes. That is why, in all times, the Prophets of God have had tribulations and difficulties to withstand. The more often the captain of a ship is in the tempest and difficult sailing the more greater his knowledge becomes. Therefore I am happy that you have had great tribulations and difficulties . . . Strange it is that I love you and still I am happy that you have sorrows.
--'Abdu'l-Baha
Know thou of a certainty that Love is the secret of God's holy Dispensation, the manifestation of the All-Merciful, the fountain of spiritual outpourings. Love is heaven's kindly light, the Holy Spirit's eternal breath that vivifieth the human soul. Love is the cause of God's revelation unto man, the vital bond inherent, in accordance with the divine creation, in the realities of things. Love is the one means that ensureth true felicity both in this world and the next. Love is the light that guideth in darkness, the living link that uniteth God with man, that assureth the progress of every illumined soul. Love is the most great law that ruleth this mighty and heavenly cycle, the unique power that bindeth together the divers elements of this material world, the supreme magnetic force that directeth the movements of the spheres in the celestial realms. Love revealeth with unfailing and limitless power the mysteries latent in the universe. Love is the spirit of life unto the adorned body of mankind, the establisher of true civilization in this mortal world, and the shedder of imperishable glory upon every high-aiming race and nation...O ye beloved of the Lord! Strive to become the manifestations of the love of God, the lamps of divine guidance shining amongst the kindreds of the earth with the light of love and concord.
--'Abdu'l-Baha

My Interests

..

"consciousness of the oneness of mankind, Divine Love...if gravity is the earth's love for everything on it, and the attraction between the protons, neutrons, and electrons is love, and the universe is made of love, and God is Love...how can we not all be connected through Love?

ever had VOSS water? It makes you do crazy things!!

I'd like to meet:

you, the real you.

my sister loves me...

"The more we search for ourselves, the less likely we are to find ourselves; and the more we search for God, and to serve our fellow-men,the more profoundly will we become acquainted with ourselves, and the more inwardly assured. This is one of the great spiritual laws of life."

(From a letter written on behalf of Shoghi Effendi to an individual believer, February 18, 1954)

Open minded and accepting, you strive for harmony in your important relationships.
It takes a long time for people to get to know you. You are hesitant to let people get close.
But once you care for someone, you do everything you can to help them grow and develop.

You would make an excellent writer, psychologist, or artist. What's Your Personality Type?

Movies:

So...I really enjoy movies...my favorite of ALL TIME are as follows - The Labrinth, The Dark Crystal, Legend, The Princess Bride, Flight of the Navigator, Monster Squad (if you know this, I LOVE YOU), bug (anybody anybody?!?!). Anything directed by Tim Burton and anything with Jonny Depp. Big Trouble in Little China. Gladiator was my favorite for a long time, Life as a House, Life Aquatic, Crash, Garden State, I Heart Huckabees, Finding Nemo, Kao Ho Neh Ho, Napoleon Dynomite, Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind, Seven Years in Tibet, Hotel Rowanda, Constant Gardener, etc... I really like to watch "scary movies" with the hope of actually being scared, but alas, it hasn't happend yet. I like all movies, except for Master of Disguises, that sucked, and just recently I saw Way of the Gun...not impressed by that one! I just saw New World...and let me tell you, it isn't just a film, it's a work of art!

Television:

my mommy... my sister... my Katie... my Jinous... my Jessica... my Sarah... my happy place...

Books:

The writings in the Baha'i Faith and the other religions of the world. I also like reading books about quantum physics and psychology...I know, I'm a huge nerd! I really like a book called 'Faith, Physics, and Psychology' by John Medina...check it out!

Heroes:



anyone that believes in what they believe in and figure things out for themselves instead of taking someones word for it, and yet is able to listen to what someone has to say with open eyes and ears, mind and heart. I don't have a "hero" I believe in people, and respect certain figures in the history of the world. But the true "heros" in this life are Manifestations of God, and yet "hero" just doesn't quite cut it for me...
