R.I.P. Donald Andrew Bartlett I Love you Daddy... I will forever whipser on the wind to you"Look deeper into the weed blossoms as you pick the wildflowers, there is a bouqet hiding in the overshadowed too."Be Poor. Its Cheaper."Techno kills the accoustic star.""I Dont hesitate to steal bread from the mouths of decadence.""Does this shirt make me look fat? No VISION makes you look fat."And so, as one smart bear once said..."If you live to be a hundred, I want to live to be a hundred minus one day, so I never have to live without you." - Winnie the Pooh.L.C. and I furthering our bond....my chubby monster kitty.
..Rainbow shadows in the earth, plural messages giving birth. Receive the message, don't yet fear. Your life awaits a single Tear.Mysterious, powerful- tricksters or gods, pixies and mixies, and fauns and elves; kings and queens of marvelous means? Nature spirits or fallen angels, legend or fact? My head spins enternal to find fairy-fact! Brownies and gnomes, banshees and goblins, my eyeballs revolve in my own little noggin!Tis I... Who am I? well, not much space for break down my life, but I'll try for boredoms sake. I'm 21 years old, I'm married to one of the best husbands in the world! He is a constant source of companionship, laughter, and support. I count myself so lucky to have found the one person in the world able to put up with my bitter anger, my clumsy grace, my flashing sadness, all those scars from inner shadows, my passionate affection, and my joyous laughter. All of it he accepts as a part of me, and has a special place in his life for me in all of my various moods. He is currently serving in the Air force, training, as I type this, to become a dedicated crew cheif (mechanic right behind the pilot) and an instructor for F-15 eagle model airplanes. He is out achieving his dream, not only for himself, but for me as his wife. I am so very proud of him, and the fact that it took him years to obtain that from me makes it all the more of import and note. I know now he will be the prefect husband, and one day father, once out of the military.I have a beautiful god daughter who it turning out so beautifully if, reality makes me admit, a rather spazz-tastic stand-up attitude thanks to her mom (haha Ashley!). I feel blessed to have her in my life, even if shes not my own, I love watching her grow into her own person.I was going to Houston community college, getting my basics out of the way, aspiring to transfer to a full time university to have two majors, one in Greek mythology, the other in English literature, both to help me become a writer, my own dream.I am currently living on Base in Panama City Florida, having been deployed here only four days after our Hasndfasting/wedding on March 4th. Its nice to be able to breath air with no smog/cancer/asbestos in it like houston, and go to the beach and not be afraid of oil spillage, aids infested needles, and moan-wars like galveston beach. Its gorgeous here, and the sun does do my soul some good.I have what few happy memories I have of my past to take with me to a new life. I get to go to japan, Italy, but most likly england in one year to live for 2 years or less.I've recently had the honor of being asked into an Internship program at Bear Creek Feline Sanctuary. For those of you that know a whit about me, this is the closest thing to my highest dream (other than being a writer), of owning my own wildlife sanctuary one day. I cannot begind to explain with any justifiably eloquence my feelings toward being allowed work with these amazing animals, and amazing people. The owner has taken me under his wing like a surrogate father, and has soothed my soul in ways he will never know. I currently am graced with being the human companion to one very special, and very chubby, African Serval named LC. As with most of our cats, he is a rescue. Born and raised his entire life in one dark basement, such social seregation had left his socially unsteady and unhappy. He was at Bear Creek for about two yers before I got there, and no one had taken him under them due to his personality and standoffish ways. It was love at first site. He is so very like a more chubby and fluffier me, so very misunderstood and alone so often before. I met this handsome male upon a tour at the facility, and before I knew I would ever be working there I knew upon site he needed me, and that gave me the strengh and resolve to go up to the owner and ask to become and Intern. I will never forget that gift to me. He will never be a loving sit in your lap cat, and thats ok, if I can spend the rest of his life making him more comfortable, enriched and happy, I have done more good than I could have ever hoped. I love him so, and Bear Creek has given him, like me, a brighter outlook on life that can only get better. I also work with a male siberian lynx, who was a sad recue form a pelt farm, who, like so many others, life has changed around due to the wonderful things Jim (the owner) has done. One of the top things we belive in at Bear Creek is everyone deserves a second chance, and these amazing animals are no exception. For a sneekpeak into the lives of the other felines who have so touched mine, please look into the photo album here called "My Internship at Bear Creek."I have been dedicated into the Black Forest tradition, Clan Raven of the Black rose, Coven of the Golden Dolphin, to promise to study for a year and a day all things that are Wicca. I am proud to honor lineage directly from Silver Ravenwolf, a prestigious writer known to almost all who read up on metaphysical subjects, especially Wicca. She was my teachers teacher, so its not far removed. I have meet and joined in rites some of the kindest, wise and compassionate people I have ever meet. Wicca has given me such peace of mind in enabling me to know that I Can take control of my life's energies, and help the earth while I'm at it. I wouldn't trade all the hard work I'm now into as a seeker for anything.I have two cats (Darien, the "love of my life", and Serena), Donny the bunny, Cody the turtle, Alfirg (old norse for drawf guys!) the hampster, Mano (the hawaiaan shark-god!) the fish, The Sailor Scout Sea Monkeys, my darling baby Suga- the sugar glider, and my new puppy Goblin. I got to take them all with me to Florida :P.I'm happy with my lot.I love Photography, it has helped me find beauty in this turbulent world of ours. Anything can be a snap shot, the lighting on the wall from the window in the morning, a rock cluster with the moons shadows, your husband sleeping, all hold a beauty that the beholder has only to realize, and enjoy as a gift of life. Nothing has made me more motivated to find the smallest budding beauty of life, than the tragic death of my father as of August 16th, 2007. After fighting a failing liver due to hep c for three plus years, and even though he was fighting or a liver transplant till the day he died, his bosy, his liver, then kidneys, then heart just gave up, they stopped pumping life, and his soul passed the rainbow bridge before he was ready. And all because of various doctors unwilling to treat him because treatments are expensive and we were poor. Its hell to be poor, and eventually it lead to killing him in the waiting game. He couldnt afford a liver, and he got put to the back of the line. Yet, he would want smiles with my tears, and I have tried to acheive his wish, and look toward the moon more, wispering on the wind to him, and tell him of the small joys I find in my life.That's about it, if you want to know more, your just gonna have to ask.

It is possible for a jewish women to practice the craft and Judiasm. It is possible for that Catholic gentlemen to practice the Craft and Catholism. It is possible when you let go of the idea that one group is right and the other is wrong. It is possible when you transcend the idea that Divnity belongs to olny one group of individuals. It is possible when you understand that Divinity manifests in a variety of ways within the human mind, and without it. The human, thank goddess, is not the known center of the Universe.I will serve the Great Goddess And give reverence to the Great God I am a Pagan A stone in the ancient circle Standing firmly Balanced on the earth Yet open to the winds of heaven And enduring through time May the old gods witness my words Blessed Be.So you say you love God and everyday you read His book but have you ever taken a second to take a good look?At the people around you who believe in the same, but they live it; not read it so you think they are strange.I've read your book I've heard your preachers scream and I can tell you my dear you live in a dream.You listen to man and not to your heart your faith based on words will soon be torn apart.Don't look at me strange when I say I'm a Witch because if you knew what I knew you're beliefs just might switch.You cling to Jesus for he died for your sins; he died for mine too but that's just where it beginsI don't rule out that God has come to earth I don't rule out that he came by his birth.But perhaps this God about whom the stories are told is the same God to which my beliefs hold.You call a woman named Mary the Mother of God. I call his mother the Goddess now is that so odd?My beliefs and yours are not quite far apart; we just have different names for the faith in our heart.There truly is not wrong or right I know the great One hears me when I pray at night.Whether he or she Whether he or she whether one or three I know my creator truly loves me.I have not judged you so do not judge me in time my dear perhaps you shall see......that its not important the faith you choose to be. It's important you have faith In the God that there be.~~~~Source Unknown
