About Me

Full of life, compassionate, sweet, silly (at least most days), introspective, giving, sometimes moody, singing all the time, laughing at something all the time, smiling when you look my way, serious when you're not, except if I am engaged in a funny thought to myself, loves the beach, likes to run before going out (helps me feel thin again), love to dance to all music of the African diaspora. ....Travel moves me, the idea of being abroad but inside yourself all the same time....Love music, words and the idea of creation...solitary, spend a lot of time alone, filled with thoughts, pretty, real and truthful....but forever married to idealism, the way things should be, I never give up on the way things should be You should create your own MySpace Layouts like me by using nUCLEArcENTURy .COM's MySpace Profile Editor !
