About Me

I'm a gemini, so I'm a bit restless. Want to be on the go all the time, but love when I settle in and enjoy being at home with 5 different books on my hammock in the back yard. Love music and the intense vehicle that it is. I appreciate the arts and think that if we do not have a good balance with our artistic side we miss out on translating the truest part of life into something concrete and personal... I love to pontificate and theorize. I believe we are in need of connecting more on important issues in our generation. More said later.....
I edited my profile with Thomas Myspace Editor V3.6 !
I'm an elementary school counselor and believe to effect change, you got to have convictions and an audience. I only want to impart emotional and mental well-being---help kids and participate in school (and community) reform. I'm a counsellor, by just trade. Interested in brain research and emotions. I believe in universal ideals and strive for understanding and unification, rather than division. I long to understand and intimately describe processes and experiences in a way that is somewhat mystical. I look into herbalism, and dream interpretation, and believe in prayer, and that modern day prophets (definers of our time) do exist and I want to hear from them. height="373"..

My Interests

Poetry (writing...and communing with), Music (various...love live), being physically moved by music, Thai Chi, yoga, coffee house loungin', reading on my hammock, character refinement, staring into space, reasoning, intellectualizing, conversating, watching others unleash the art in them ( but all this pornographic crap is a cop out -- your beauty is far beyond physical ), and guiding kids to their goals or inspiring them to conjure some up, watching the change of seasons and time and seeing how we respond
