my random thoughts...... Sharing and discovering new and unchartered experiences with new and old friends. Making a positive difference in the lives of those I have the pleasure to touch. Finding various outlets to pour my creative juices into. Learning new things to expand my horizons. Falling in Love over and over again. Discovering my own elasticity. Enjoying the wonderful company of new and old friends, and getting to know them even more. Long Hikes in nature with my furry and cute doggie. Meditating for an hour to the point of leaving my body. Learning to truly appreciate what I already have. Addicted to the adrenaline rush from a good run, and working out. Playing tennis the right way, charging down the mountain on my board, gettin my groove on the dance floor, the high I feel when I salsa and meringue. Love live theatre, live performance arts, and especiailly listening to a jammin' live band.
