IT AIN'T TRICKN IF YOU GOT IT!

About Me

Call me Wanderlust--I love to travel. I have lived in several different countries including Italy and Holland. I've also called Arizona, New Mexico, Virginia, Florida, Maryland, Washington D.C., and Minnesota home. My next home will be near a beach. I would love to live in Mombasa, Kenya...right off the Indian Ocean.My passion is writing, drawing and painting. I'm very private about my art, not for lack of talent. But because I do it for myself and I don't really care what anybody thinks.My other favorite thing to do is to chill at home and drink my favorite wine: Cotes-du-Rhone.Music is also a must--I can do anything, as long as there is some music playing in the background. I like a little bit of everything--from hardcore hip hop to classical.While I like to party...my first priority is taking care of my kids. I hope to show them the world--and all it has to offer.You should also know that I love myself...very much. Not in a conceited way. But the way a mature, responsible woman should. I also love being in love with other people---lol. There is nothing in this world better than loving someone--and having them love you right back. With all this said, I'm not really LOOKING for a mate--but if I happen to meet Mr. Wonderful--that would be nice.

we wear the mask

We wear the mask that grins and lies,
It hides our cheeks and shades our eyes,--
This debt we pay to human guile;
With torn and bleeding hearts we smile,
And mouth with myriad subtleties.

Why should the world be overwise,
In counting all our tears and sighs?
Nay, let them only see us, while
We wear the mask.

We smile, but, O great Christ, our cries
To thee from tortured souls arise.
We sing, but oh the clay is vile
Beneath our feet, and long the mile;
But let the world dream otherwise,
We wear the mask!
