I am here for Friends and Networking

About Me

SINGING is breathing and healing...MUSIC is living laughing loving weeping moving growing transcending...READING/WRITING is stirring the mystical swampy stew...the QUEST: To the table I am sent, where bread, wine and palaver make us into something new together; A standing invitation for all - for conversation and contemplation of the spirit. The more the merrier! I generated my profile with this Layout Generator ! - Unique MySpace Layouts
