Finding Peace means to have no desire in Life

About Me

I am an Artist and a Spiritualist. I am also an accomplished artist. I am Darlene Regnier, born fifth child in a family of six children. The invisible child, the lost child. I am the racially confused child of the 60's, born to a bigoted family. I am African, but white. Tell me why? I am odd and this I know. But, I am here because the Lwa have called me since birth. Of Africa and Haiti, I cannot help but love with all my heart and I see my Sisters and brothers in all.
