I am here for Friends

About Me

My soul resides within my heart; so deep that it remains touched by only a few. My experiences with human nature has frequently and consistently taught me sincere appreciation. I have been humbled by Universal spirit yet lifted by my own powerful capabilities. Having an immense amount of love for Life, it carries me to have an amazing respect for it. Its constant challenges and its testing of my will has me thriving while surviving without being overcome. If just one individuals Life is altered by a mere conversation or chance meeting, then my Life purpose has been found and met. My strength resides in my history; my humor; my laughter; my tenacity; that soul; my flaws. These flaws I have accepting as my own uniqueness and cause me to smile. I'm strong in voice, mind, and opinion therefore I may be slightly arrogant. I would like to think that my refusal to succumb to the weaknesses of Life's darker side is my small part in optimistic living. I see the light of it while remaining aware of the fact that we are all constantly hurdling over mounds of it. My seeing the beauty in all things in the manner I do isn't necessarily understood by most. I embrace that fact with vivacious and sincere joy. It makes Life all the more interesting, doesn't it?
Moving onto myspace: MAKE SURE YOU READ THE BLOG ENTITLED "READ THIS BEFORE VENTURING ANY FURTHER"!!!!! I would view it as your guide if I were you and unless I know who the hell you are away from this site, i'm extremely strict with it. It eliminates the nonsense and shows who takes the time out to actually read me. All that being said: peace, love and luck to all and have a fantastic myspace journey!!! -Rissy- ----------------------------------------- -----------------------

My Interests



I made this music player at MyFlashFetish .com.


I'm SEVERLY open minded although some people think a little too much, I say a heart felt whatever to that though. I'm willing to walk through the unknown at least ONCE in my lifetime just so I can smile with triumph knowing I did it! I'm absolutely full of contradictions, although brilliant...I am human. -wink- I LOVE coasters and bungee jumping but i'm scared out of my MIND of heights. I'm going to stare this fear in the eyes straight on by doing what I never imagined I would...skydiving. Yes, you read correctly. I'm nervously excited! I'm a sucker for Godiva and will probably put a broad in a choke hold for anything involving dark chocolate, and I do mean anything. If my free time isn't being taken over by the midget, I spend it doing a variety of things. (Did I mention my love affair with roller coasters, yea..yea, i'm sure I did.) I'm moody as all sorts of hell so my interests are swayed by whatever mood i'm in. I'm a football head to the 100th degree (J.E.T.S JETS! JETS! JETS!) and not one of those weirdo broads who watch just to seem like she gets it to "impress" whatever dude she's currently trying to grasp the attention of. I grew up in a football household and spent 12 years on the sidelines rooting my team on. Surprising even myself, I have become infatuated with Baseball as well. Amazing, isn't it? Being a resident of Atlanta, I have FINALLY found a local team I can adopt and call my own.(The Braves outfield totally rocks!)I imagine that you will find me easily in the stands. I'm the overly enthusiastic one cheering and dancing..without a sign. lol. I'm a FANATIC about any form of dancing and did so myself for 20 odd years. I just love the way music makes me feel and I MUST express it! I am completely serious, I have zero control over my body once music is nearby. I took everything you can possibly think of except perhaps clog. I fell in love with en pointe and stuck with that until I was 21. I love anything that's funky as hell and I tend to swim against the current just because i'm not really supposed to. Some may view it as defiance but I would like to think of it as experimentation. I'm living.----------------------------------------------------- -------...... What Charisse Means .... .... You are very open. You communicate well, and you connect with other people easily.

I'd like to meet:

Anyone with a genuinely sweet disposition. Like minded individuals with a budding desire to reach ones own Life purpose.

Music:

Your fingertips across my skin
The palm trees swaying in the wind
Images

You sang me Spanish lullabies
The sweetest sadness in your eyes
Clever trick

I never want to see you unhappy
I thought you'd want the same for me

Goodbye, my almost lover
Goodbye, my hopeless dream
I'm trying not to think about you
Can't you just let me be?
So long, my luckless romance
My back is turned on you
I should've known you'd bring me heartache
Almost lovers always do

We walked along a crowded street
You took my hand and danced with me
Images

And when you left you kissed my lips
You told me you'd never ever forget these images, no

I never want to see you unhappy
I thought you'd want the same for me

Goodbye, my almost lover
Goodbye, my hopeless dream
I'm trying not to think about you
Can't you just let me be?
So long, my luckless romance
My back is turned on you
I should've known you'd bring me heartache
Almost lovers always do

I cannot go to the ocean
I cannot drive the streets at night
I cannot wake up in the morning
Without you on my mind
So you're gone and I'm haunted
And I bet you are just fine
Did I make it that easy for you
To walk right in and out of my life?

Goodbye, my almost lover
Goodbye, my hopeless dream
I'm trying not to think about you
Can't you just let me be?
So long, my luckless romance
My back is turned on you
I should've known you'd bring me heartache
Almost lovers always do

Movies:

Braveheart; The Star Wars saga; LOTR; Gladiator; The Notebook; Tombstone; Old School; The Patriot(mel); Ben Hur; Harold and Kumar go to White Castle, etc...I absolutely love anything involving film.

Books:

I read, and read..and read. My imagination is allowed to thrive and my knowledge is constantly being expanded by venturing out into different genres. From scifi/fantasy to psychological wellbeing..my mind is always becoming more fit.

Heroes:

My mother will always be my hero. She will constantly flow through my own personal existence and if I reach a mere fraction of what Life guided her to become, I will be successful in Living. I love and miss you very much mommy. I strive to be in your likeness.
