I do today what others won't, so I have tomorrow what others can't...

About Me


Okay..first...my name: AMIKA LENYON means "little friend" in 7 different languages and is pronounced "Ah-Meek-Ah Len-Yon". My name has always been a topic of conversation when I meet people. I am originally from Michigan and home is where the heart is, but I have lived U.S. I now spend a lot of time traveling for business.
I am who I am...I do what I do!
Here's my deal.... God, Family, Business...then everything else! I am as tenacious as they come! I am an entrepreneur at heart and love a good challenge! People, arts, photography, the ocean and music inspire me! I love to make new friends and enjoy what life has to offer! I am very driven and ambitious, but enjoy a good time. My motto is: "Work Hard, Play Harder!" I decided a long time ago...never regret, laugh as much as you can and meet new people whenever you have the chance! Relationships of all kinds are so important! Lastly...Expect nothing for you shall never be disappointed!
I have a passion for life and I love the ocean! Being a cancer conqueror of 5 years, sunsets remind me that I have lived another day borrowed in time! I believe in giving back to others and I try to do that as much as I am able. My friends are my escape from reality...they are beautiful, tenacious, talented, vivacious and loving people.

My Interests


"A belief is not merely an idea the mind possesses; it is an idea that possesses the mind." - Robert Bolton

Music, Dancing, Painting, Photography, The Ocean, Acting, Modeling, Martini's and Fine Wine, Traveling, Horseback Riding, Technology, Hiking, Camping, Water Skiing, Sailing, Singing, and Meeting New People. One of my biggest passions is for art and photography. Below are some scenic photos I have taken while traveling to New York, Maine, N. Carolina, Alaska, Las Vegas and Hawaii.

I'd like to meet:


People that notice the important things in life and make a difference! I would love to meet anyone that has something interesting to say. Beautiful people are great to look at, but the true essence of a person is much deeper. Life is about real experiences and if people cannot share who they really are, then we all become clones. Truth resides within your heart and your words, not within your image! Friends are those who know your soul and stand by you through ever challenge in life, both positive and negative. If you are fortunate enough to have a person, such as this, in your life...you are blessed. Always Live in Love and Expect Nothing For You Shall Never Be Disappointed!
If you leave this world tomorrow...who will really show up to pay their respects?

Music:


I really love Old Motown, Rock, R&B, Hip-Hop and Jazz! I will listen to anything once!
''All men are created equal, It is only men themselves who place themselves above equality.'' - David Allen Coe
"This above all, to thine own self be true." - William Shakespeare
TY STONE

Movies:

I have a home theater, so I enjoy all types of movies...old and new, but I really love suspense-thrillers or a great comedy! Some of my personal favorites are: Swingers, Office Space, Meet The Fockers and Rent!
..

Television:

I don't have much time to watch TV, but when I can I watch Grey's Anatomy, Desperate Housewives, Prison Break (Wentworth Miller is HOT!), Men In Trees (I used to live in Alaska), House and Criminal Minds. Ummmmmm.....did I say Grey's Anatomy!!! Thank God for DVR!!

Books:

When I have time to read I enjoy books by C.S. Lewis, "The Seven Spiritual Laws of Success: A Practical Guide to the Fulfillment of Your Dreams" by Deepak Chopra and suspense-thriller books...like author Dean Koontz and Robin Cook. I just finished reading, "Rich Dad Poor Dad" by author, Robert T. Kiyosaki". You should check it out, they it's an awesome book! I also appreciate the books: "The Purpose Driven Life" by Rick Warren and "The Way Of The Shephard" by Dr. Kevin Leman/William Pentak. I am also addicted to finding inspirational and thought provoking quotes. Reading allows me to step away from the craziness of the day for a bit, which I think everyone requires from time to time.

Heroes:

Jesus...of course! My dad...who is the most amazing and loving guy I know! Our U.S. Military Rocks! Thanks for all you do for our freedoms! For those of you who speak negatively about our military...kiss my ass! I have loved ones over there defending the freedoms you take for granted!
