There is nothing that brings me more pleasure than sitting with a group of musicians making music. Feeling the synergy being created in that process is like nothing I have ever experienced.
Another passion of mine is live theater. I have been involved most of my life.
Started out as a teen, acting....that grew into directing. I prefer to direct now rather then take on a role. Don't ask me why.....my sisters would tell you it is because I am bossy......HA!
It is not our bank account, or career or public status that enriches us in this life. If I did not know it before, I certainly do now.
Question??? Why is there not a spell check on My Space? Just wondering.

Heroes:
My father and mother...Otis and Katherine Preslar. From these two people I have witnessed love in action. I have learned what it means to pour yourself out time and time again, without thought of what is in it for you. I have learned from them the art of just putting one foot in front of the other, over and over. The simplicity of just "doing what comes next". I have received from them the priceless gift of unconditional love.......
Anne Lindburgh!!!!... Elanor Roosevelt,... Barbra Dole,... Avner Cohen,.....
My daughter Renee,She knows what it means to keep putting one foot in front of the other. She has a practical sense of priority that I am lacking.
My sons Ethan, and Wesley they are growing into men of honor and integrity.......
My son Ryan May. He knew at a very early age what was important in life. His belief system caused him to live an amazing life with no regrets. Few of us can say that.
My children are the best of me. They each hold my heart and I would not be who I am without having given birth to each one of them.
My dear brother Swil Kanim, an overcomer if ever I saw one. Simply an amazing man.
My husband Richard is the most spiritual, positve, upbeat, roll with the punches kinda guy I know. We could all learn a lot from watching him life his life. I know what it means to be cherished by the way he loves me.
