I am here for Friends and Networking

About Me

When i was but a tiny child..i splashed around in the shallow swift waters. As i grew i journeyed farther upstream to the deep still waters.I found there a place where i could become as one with all the greatness that the world has to offer.
I am a mother of five awesome children...well some are not children any more.I work hard and keep busy even in my so called down time.I write, make jewelry, listen to lots of music...and sing along with all of it.I have loved and lost.Won and lost.I guess i am rather eclectic.I embrace all forms of art.I respect self expression.I am very independent and even a bit selfish.I guess they go hand and hand though.I can be loud but am usually quiet.Oh and no i am not here to date!
THE FOLLOWING IS IMPORTANT TO ME...... IN A YEAR 440, 000 People die due to cigarettes... 40, 000 People die in car accidents... 38, 000 Children die from gun shot related injuries... 2, 000 Children are killed by their own parents... 3 People Are killed by Pit Bulls
If you have a desire to add me....and you are reading this...kudos to you for not just clicking ADD for the sake of wooo-hooo i am so cool!

My Interests

I'd like to meet:

Wow, any one who has respect for independent thought.Those who are willing to give more than they take.People who are willing to work for their dreams.Those who see that the grand scheme is not so grand...it starts with the little things!

My self all grown up.
PEOPLE WHO THINK OUT SIDE THE BOX!!!!!

FOOD FOR THOUGHT..............No human should deem them selves superior of mind body our soul...to do so is to claim your place as less than desirable!...Iva
Life should be a perfect balance of sweet and spicy!...Iva
Destiny shows us many paths...but we choose which one we take!...Iva
True power is having the wisdom to use your knowledge...Iva
May your inspiration light a fire within that no man can extinguish even with his greatest force!...Iva
To touch the flesh two must meet..To touch the soul all one must do is exist and reach...Iva
There comes a point when you must learn to walk away and not feel sorry for your self...that time is now my friend... Yesterday you practiced childish self pity...today you start a life of strength...Iva
When starting any new relationship you should respect your self enough to not invade some one else's...Iva
If you want respect from me...you must first respect your self!!!...Iva
To spend life bending to the will of others is a life wasted in sadness and shame!!! Iva
"We practice good manners to show those around us that we respect them!!!"....Iva
On occasion we are given a chance to change the world,one small gesture is all we need to light the spark that could better the lives of all of our species...will you act?...Iva
The soul finds silence and stillness even in the midst of chaos...IVA
When i think of all of the hardships in life...i am reminded of the simple pleasures that make life so wonderful!..Iva
And it hits you like a ton of bricks , all of the sudden you realize it was always there. You were just to self absorbed to see it!...Iva
If goodbye was easy we would never look forward to hello...Iva
Love is not something you should expect...it is something you give freely....Iva
Here is to finding the things you want and need the most all wrapped up in one amazing package! Iva
Letting go of your past is the only way to find out what the future holds!..Iva
To share in the thoughts of others is a bond stronger than any physical thing...Iva
In your smallest hour you find your greatest strength...Iva
Beauty is man kinds greatest illusion....Iva
The smallest spark can set the soul on fire!!! Iva
To know what waits around the bend we must move forward...Iva
If Insanity and Genius are synonymous and Perfect Human is an oxymoron where does that leave the rest of us?...Iva
It is easy to blame someone else when your world comes crashing in.....Just remember it is your world ..you created it !! IVA
Life is like a gentle breeze.... subtle and sweet...if you don't slow down and pay attention you will miss the pleasures that await you! Iva

Untitled for a reason

The flicker of the tiny flame that lights the tattered walls. The scent of healing Lavender that soothes the weary soul.The purity of ocean salt keeps the dark at bay.The nature of humanity that the g...

The Fool

So you say i am a fool for trying, A fool for letting go. A fool to trust unhindered, A fool to hope unscaved. I say i would rather be a fool who never misses a chance at happiness than a fool who liv...

Goodbye Gift

I see a gift in our goodbye. A desire to extend a hug. A last long look into your eyes. A subtle brush of the hand. A muted last word neither wish to say. The simplist  little phrase that never s...
