My Interests

I LOVE spending time with my family...

I enjoy being there for every step my children take in this life and doing the stuff that memories are made of. I enjoy smiling over everything my partner in this life and I have built and shared, being grateful every moment that he is in my life, and looking forward to all the potential we have in our future together.

I look forward to enjoying every day with all of my blessings
I have interests in knowledge and self-cultivation, life philosophy, holistic health, self-expression, journaling, writing, collecting quotes, collecting anything that holds potential for some creative craft I enjoy, spirituality, Taoism, Confucianism, Buddhism, Hinduism, anthropology, the magnificent diversity of various cultures, being proactive in the reality of various forms of social and global inequalities, feminism, astrology, philosophy, psychology, sociology, communication, sculpture, photography, scrapbooking, Paint Shop Pro, dancing, swimming, enjoying all that nature has to share with us, bar-b-ques in the summer, bonfires at the beach (any time of year in Cali), get-togethers with good people, rearranging the furniture and decorations in my home whenever I need a change, having time to relax, long drives where there is little-to-no traffic and lots of scenery, kicking back with good friends, rich discussions that feel like exercises in soul-making.


These are opportunities for personal growth and often for activism...

Most of these pics link to the website...

I'd like to meet:



To perpetuate positivity, insight, acceptance,
and enlightenment with my fellow brothers
and sisters on this earth and to keep
in touch with friends and family

Music:

Mostly underground stuff focusing on positivity, knowledge, and social change.

Movies:

It is getting increasingly harder for me to enjoy movies, because all I see are race, gender, age, citizenship, etc. stereotypes, and this INFURIATES ME because media is such a HUGE part of the problem of perpetuating these ideas that people of the dominant group internalize, which enables them to continue to oppress and victimize "others".

Television:

TV is MUCH worse!!!! We don't watch it: there is enough drama, comdey, etc in real life, if people got out from in front of the TV and lived life!! Also, because we could care less what is happening in the private lives of celebrities; we prefer to care about what is happening in the lives of the people that media doesn't represent.

Books:

Recently, this includes "Feminist Fairy Tales" (bedtime stories for my daughter and fiance *he's SUCH a trooper*), "Cunt", "If Women Ruled the World", "The Beauty Myth", "Body Outlaws", and anything I can get my hands on concerning being an anti-racist White person in this structurally oppressive society.

Heroes:

Survivors and changers. Innovators and activists for the marginalized and under-represented.
