Because it is bitter, and because it is my heart

About Me

I am...getting older, though never quite feeling my age. Searching for my happiness. Often silly, sensitive, passionate, tender-hearted... bruised on occasion, but never broken.

My Interests

Music, reading, learning...loving, traveling. Snowboarding! Seeking new and beautiful experiences, always.

I'd like to meet:

My soulmate. Those who inspire and challenge me... Open-minded, adventurous and free-spirited souls. Those who will laugh at me, and with me, often.

Books:

Favorite authors: Jane Austen, Joyce Carol Oates & Anais Nin. Just a few of the many books that held my attention and left me wanting more: Lucky; Into The Wild; The Lovely Bones; The Last Time They Met; The Time Traveler's Wife; The Inner Circle; Goat: A Memoir; The Line of Beauty; The Corrections; Fall on Your Knees; The Way the Crow Flies; Ill-Equipped for a Lifetime of Sex.
I adore the classics, love memoirs...anything that makes me think, question and feel. Even better if it makes me cry.

Heroes:

Those who follow their heart. My sister - for her generous nature. My brother - for his free spirit.

Love this quote...

"If you don't like someone, the way he holds his spoon will make you furious; if you do like him, he can turn his plate over into your lap and you won't mind." -Irving Becker So true...
