I edited my profile with Thomas’ Myspace Editor V3.6 !
I am the mother of two fantastic kids..and it's the one thing in the world I take very seriously..I always want them to feel loved, safe, and special!!
I'm an easy going, open minded person..my friends say I'm a little wild..old habits are hard to break I guess. Although I find my head in a dark place at times..I like to have a good time and love to make new friends...People, all people fascinate me... ..My family, good friends, a good drink..(be it a Newcastle Ale or a Barcadi and coke)and having NEW experiences are what keep me turned on..I hate to get bored...I am a night person..sometimes wish that the sun would never come up..so anyway..look for me in the late evening..I enjoy long talks about any subject. I'm a nester at heart..comfort and home are what I am most about.
So thanx and I look forward to meeting you all!!
Dave McKean...brilliant!

My Interests


jimmy page..
Well, I consider myself the indoorsy type...books, movies, and the like...give me a world tour including the 5 star treatment and I'm lovin' life My real interests lie in the study of philosophy, religious study and ancient histories. I am a huge fan of a great man named Joseph Campbell, he has been a huge influence on me and how I view the world around me. Mr Campbell was a great man and will be forever missed but never forgotten... "Every religion is true one way or another. It is true when understood metaphorically. But when it gets stuck in its own metaphors, interpreting them as facts, then you are in trouble." ...Joseph Campbell
My religion of choice is Paganism...it is a personal choice and I impose it upon no one else..I'm not Wiccan..and I practice my spirituality in a solitary and private way..but it is a big part of my life. I look to all aspects of every religion and find them all relevant in the world we find ourselves in today..I would not deny anyone their beliefs..it's just enough that my friends believe in something that works for them...
When not lost in daydreams..I'm all about NASCAR..
TONY STEWART!!

I also love music..it's a huge part of our lives here at my house..and unfortunately I don't have the musical talent the powers gave a rock..nonetheless I have no problem belting out a tune when I find myself all by my onesy in my car..

I'd like to meet:


Just some friendly people...like minded...although what I really hope to gain out of this experience is to meet people that can turn me on to new ideas, music, movies, books, and philosophies...but...that being said.. if given the opportunity here's a few boys I'd really like to meet...I like boys..what can I say?? ;)this one goes without saying....Jonathan Rhys Meyers...as close to perfection as humanly possible...CRISS! sorry...he leaves me speechless..Maynard..a gift from the Powers That Be...The sexiest Doctor yet...Ben Browder...just yummy!!Johnny ;)Scott Weiland…David...need I say more?

This is my favorite piece from the Nelson Gallery in Kansas City..my hometown. Everytime I got a chance to get there, and even to this day..this is the first stop I make..a great gallery, and an inspiring work of art..

She is called "She Who Hears the Cries of the World."Quan Yin is one of the most revered masters of Asia, the goddess of compassion. Though often associated with Buddhism, she is not confined to one religion.She is most often depicted in feminine form, but there are also sculptures and paintings of Quan Yin in masculine form. She is similar to Avalokiteshvara and Chenrezig, Buddhist deities of compassion.Statues of her can be found in many homes, for while she is a Buddhist embodiment of the highest spiritual attainment, Kwan Yin also enjoys the wide popularity of a folk goddess.Among Buddhist statues exhibited in the Nelson-Atkins Museum of Art in Kansas City, Missouri, is an 11th/12th-century C.E. polychrome wooden Avalokiteshvara, Seated Gaunyin Bodhisattva, internationally heralded as the finest sculpture of its kind outside China.

This makes me laugh every time!!

Proud To Be Witches
Long ago and far away We worked by night and hid by day We could not in the open go Because the church did fear us so.They feared us for our power was true Because our magick they could not do And so they cried with evil smirk Let's burn them all - 'tis Devils work.And burned they did, and tortured too But still we managed to come through And so today our path is free To worship Lord and Lady.We work our rites just as of old Now in the open free and bold We did not change or go away We tell the world: We're here to stay!

Heroes:

Besides my Father whom is truly my one great hero in my life...I have found Joseph Campbell to be a great inspiration. He has tought me the profound importance of being able to look at the world and the mythology that shapes it, with an open mind mind and heart.
I found this video on YouTube.com...just thought it was very cool and it is set to the music Danse Macabre, one of my favorite pieces of music..I hope you enjoy it too. :)

TRUE GODS.
The Greek Goddess Hecate represents the third aspect of the Goddess, the Crone. She is known as the Goddess of witches and of magic, the dark of the moon, and the depths of the underworld. She walks along the roadways and counsels those at the crossroads. Of all the Greek Goddesses, Hecate alone could grant or refuse anything asked by mortals. She is the Queen of the Night, and those who seek her protection can move safely in the darkness. Hecate is the voice of wisdom, divination and dreams.
