Normally, we do not so much look at things as overlook them.... Alan Watts.

About Me

I am constantly evolving. I believe that I can learn something important from everyone I meet. I love art, music, reading, writing, movies, crafting jewelry, the aesthetics of things, and learning in general...if it speaks to the soul, I listen. I want to surround myself with wonderful people. I want to spend more time laughing than crying. If you are genuine, we will be friends for life. I want to see the world-- both the developed and undeveloped countries-- and experience the many facets of life. I want to ride in a hot air balloon. I want my children to be proud of me and strong because of me. I want to live up to the legends of my ancestors.
