About Me

I have been described by my friends as "sexy", "passionate", "unique" and "expansive". It is difficult for me to talk about myself because I am ever changing. Right now I am learning a lot about myself - wants, needs, who I am really, my good points and my less desirable characteristics. This is much needed time as I transition into the next phase of my life. Trying to keep my eyes and ears open for the truth even if it hurts.Layout made by happykmd at CreateBlog.com .
