About Me

============================================================ ============== "Running is my ritual. Hiking is my meditation."
Most of you browsing this site know me. I work hard to make my life everything that I want it to be. That includes any aspect of life that I can consciously think of. I am also aware that we all have blind spots.
I work on mine the best that I can, and try to accept myself just as I am. It seems pure and simple, although it seems we're all struggling to do this because of the sheer level of ambiguity in this statement.
On to some hobbies: Socializing is a hobby of mine, but so are running, hiking, backpacking, swimming, ice-skating, playing with Linux, computers, music, photography, writing, and dreaming.
I'm spiritual. I love paganism and many of my chosen family also enjoy this form of religious spirituality. In the greater Seattle pagan community, I'm moderately well known. More or less, I'm that girl that a lot of people recognize, for whatever reason that may be. I tend to be one of those people that is noticed. Maybe it's because I am as energetically loud as I want to be. :)
Sitting in one place is not one of my favorite things to do - I strive to get out and move. I try and live my life actively...
I am my own motivation. I rely on me for a lot of the most important things - my livelihood, and my mental sanity ;)I like to keep a few people near and dear - and I also like to have many acquaintances. But my favorite moments are when I am behind the wheel of my car alone - or out for a run. These are the times when I have a chance to sit back and let go of all the things that chip away at each of us everyday.
I think everyone has a right to live their life to the best of their personal Will. These are a few ways that I achieve this for myself.
Other ways? I'm goal-oriented. I like to get things done.
I like to feel like I'm getting somewhere and doing something. Accomplishments make me high. Energy work, chakra work, and path-work, also make me high. And then there's the eternal curiosities that never go away...===================================================== =====================
What makes you tick? I'm a quest to find out that about myself.

Music:

My absolute favorite is TOOL. However, I like nearly everything. Rock is cooler than pop/hip hop, though I like to dance to things with a cool beat. So that includes rap/hip hop, some pop/popular shiat too.Sometimes I also like random Spanish pop, or neato stuff like Delerium. Really, honestly. I just go through phases of liking almost any kind of music. Currently on the rock phase. Or the perpetual Tool phase, because I never go out of the Tool phase.

Television:

Gilmore Girls. Other stuff. I watch what those people I hang out with watch - because I probably wouldn't watch anything if it were up to me. Music is better. Except I like Gilmore Girls.

Books:

Too many to list. Watership Down. Anne Rice Books (The witching hour is cool). I like Pagany books, like Starhawk, and selected Crowley writings. The book of the law. The holy books of Thelema. Lord of the rings. Ender's Game. Redwall books (Brian Jacques). Cat who books. To kill a mockingbird.

Heroes:

My parents. My best friends. These people teach me more and more about myself every day.

My Blog
