I'd like to meet:

I would like to meet people who I can trust, people I can laugh with, be real with. I would like to meet my heros- jane addams, oprah, harriot tubman, bono, moses. I can't wait to meet my ancesters who came into this country, worked hard and made new lives for themselves. Plus I want to find out what happened to my ggggggggrrandfather who disappeared the day the ship left from Germany. I would like to meet anyone who is passionate about life and helping others or is open to that.

Music:

i love all kinds of music...except country. I do like Bonnie Raitt...she's a bit countryish. Bob Marley, Led Zepplin, Jack Johnson, Fleetwood Mac, Blondie, Greatful Dead, Dylan, Bruces Red Rocket, Don Ho (JK), Koko Taylor, Clapton, 70's music, motown esp Marvin Gaye, Nora Jones, Beatles, Elton John. Music with passion, words with passion...thats what i like

Movies:

Lately, Iv'e been renting movies that I can watch with my kids that will promote thought and discusssion. Freedom Writers, Persuit of Happiness, Aviator, Pay it Forward, Forrest Gump, Borat, Walk the Line. I am continuing to look for more. I'll take suggestions

Television:

I really dont watch much tv at all. My son likes me to watch Animal Planet and Stupid Pet Videos with him. My daughter likes Full House and The Bill Cosby Show. The history channel

Books:

Purpose Driven Life, Revolution, The Red Tent, anything Wally Lamb. I read the bible.Currently reading The Bible, Enemy Women, The Emotionally Healthy Church by Peter Scazzero

Heroes:

My hero is an ordinary person who is relational, allows God to work through him/her and does things that matter. a People who can express themselves in a creative way. People who can make sence out of my sometimes jumbled thoughts like this quote from Emmerson- Emerson says it best and I just try to live by it... “To laugh often and much, to win the respect of intelligent people and the affection of children, to earn the appreciation of honest critics and endure the betrayal of false friends, to appreciate beauty, to find the best in others, to leave the world a bit better, whether by a healthy child, a garden patch… to know even one life has breathed easier because you have lived. This is to have succeeded!” And, I don't think I could live like this without God as my first and most.

My Blog

Sex in the City

Yes, I saw the movie. I had seen a few episodes of the TV series but never really got into it as a ritual. Mostly I got the gist of the series by listening to others talk about it. I was able to enj...
