MySpace profile was edited with Tower Codes
I love to laugh. Not afraid of change. Live in the present, learn from my past and love who I am Today. Not always who I appear to be. Dig deeper. Like a diamond, there are many facets to my beauty. Never stop at the surface. Will keep you full, but your thirst unquenched. Will provide answers, yet keep you guessing. Appear composed, but am untamable. Lead with my strength, but am soft to touch. No encounter is ever the same as the last. I am the observer and participant. I AM me.
You have eden eyes. Eden is the color of water. Your eyes symbolize your great flexibility. You are a creative person. You can think of many good ways to get your point across to people as you have very good communication abilities. When someone feels down or is hurt, you have the remarkable ability to help them and heal them. If you have too little going on in your life, you may be withdrawn and depressed, timid, manipulative, unreliable, stubborn, or suspicious. Some words to describe you: peaceful, sincere, affectionate, tranquil, intuitive, trustworthy, pure, loyal, healing and stable.
It's hard to believe, but I am right and left-brained gifted. I am equally interested in scientific/mathematical pursuits as I am in creative/expressive arts. It's hard to say which brings me more pleasure. I whole-heartedly enjoy the PROCESS.

Going in for service. . .

To Tell the Truth. . .

I am very honest.  I tell it like it is.  I think before I speak.  But, I say what I feel.  I think I have an "in your face" quality that is just a little too brisk for some. ...

I'm not difficult. Really, I'm not!

I'm not difficult.  Really, I'm not.  I just have a different point of view.  I see the macro and micro.  I make room for the minutiae and the massive.  I'm not arguing wit...
