About Me

I'm into things - too many to explain really - you can get an idea of what I'm into by reading my rather long info on the left there. I like to open my mind on anything & everything, analyse it, then make an informed opinion. I like to mull things over and being introspective. I like being happy which is most of the time, sadness is draining although you cant have the Yin without the Yang. I like people who are open and interesting as well as odd and unique and whom aren't afraid to be creative. I like outdoor stuff and indoor stuff as long as it occupies my mind. And I love my big circle of friends and all of their kids. I have just discovered and fully understood feminism too and am enjoying the power of sisterhood (& for anyone who doesn't understand the true meaning of feminism - no it doesn't mean I hate men.

My Interests

Music/History/Science/Geography/Books/Our World & it's natural beauty. Tribes/Good people/Animals/Mammals. My Plants/Weeping Willows/Monkey Puzzle Trees/Long walks/Festivals/Camping. Equality for all/Getting creative - painting. Japanese silks/Japanese & Chinese culture and History (Samurai & Martial arts) Crystals/Energy/Tai-Chi. Big believer in Yin & Yang. I like recycling and love Fish fingers. Finally, anything and everything that looks/tastes/smells/ feels and sounds different!
