About Me


The dream is the small hidden door in the deepest and most intimate sanctum of the soul, which opens to that primeval cosmic night that was soul long before there was conscious ego and will be soul far beyond what a conscious ego could ever reach. Carl JungGet Your Own! | View SlideshowI am currently working for a hospice agency, caring for the terminally ill. It can be a very mentally challenging and rewarding experience. Nursing is something I do for the love of it and not the money...I love to play in my spare time, I like to travel and have fun. I love festivals and being outside in the spring and fall. I have 2 children...Garrett is 10 & very mature for his age...Rayne is almost 2 & such a joy. I'm a single mom and I love my kids so much. I have two brothers that are are on myspace. They are both artists, you can check out some of Ron Brower's artwork @ imaginationillustration.us. I live in a small Mississippi town that is know as the home of the blues..they say Robert Johnson sold his soul to the devil at the crossroads of Hwy 49 & 61. We are also home to Nate Dogg (SHOUTS OUT BIGG NATE), Muddy Waters, John Lee Hooker, Ike Turner, & Tennesse Williams. Bessie Smith lost her life here in the Riverside motel because the hospital of the time wouldn't care for black patients.. She had been in a terrible car accident on her way here from Indianola, such a tragic loss of a blues legend.. You can see a tribute to Bessie Smith, John Lee Hooker, & Muddy Waters downtown Clarksdale painted by my brothers. I'm a strong willed independent soul...I love the beauty of life, the sound of my kids laughing and playing... beautiful spring mornings, the first days of fall, football games, thunderstorms..there's a cool overpass here you can go to when it's lightening and get the most awesome light show.. We have one real bar and Morgan Freeman owns it..he is frequently there... peace & love to those who take the time to read my profile..have a blessed day!♥ Shannon

My Interests

My house is always full of friends and family, just having a good time. I like to travel and meet new people. I love my kids and taking them on adventures. I am an excellent cook. I'm into reading, when I can find the time. I love down time, and just doing nothing.Beautifully Stated ...As we grow up, we learn that even the one person that wasn't supposed to ever let you down probably will. You will have your heart broken probably more than once and it's harder every time. You'll break hearts too, so remember how it felt when yours was broken. You'll fight with your best friend. You'll blame a new love for things an old one did. You'll cry because time is passing too fast, and you'll eventually lose someone you love. So take too many pictures, laugh too much, and love like you've never been hurt because every sixty seconds you spend upset is a minute of happiness you'll never get back. Don't be afraid that your life will end, be afraid that it will never begin. And yet with all this going on, you are in the right place at the right time and all is as it should be.Save the Tiger fund!

I'd like to meet:



The gift of time is not ours alone. It is given equally to each person. Rich and poor, educated and ignorant, strong and weak....every living thing has the same twenty-four hours every day. You cannot stop it. There is no way to slow it down, turn it off, or adjust it. Time marches on. You cannot bring back time. Once it is gone, it is gone. Yesterday is lost forever and kept only by memory. If yesterday is lost, tomorrow is uncertain. We may look ahead at a full year’s block of time, but we really have no guarantee that we will experience any of it. Obviously, time is one of our most precious possessions. We can waste it. We can worry over it. We can spend it on ourselves. We can devote it. We can make the most of it.The new year is full of time. As the seconds tick away, will you spend it in haste, or will you make every minute count?Wishing you an amazing 2007.

peace, love, & prosperity to you all!
