I believe in the power of giving ... I believe in the power of faith, hope and trust ... I believe that if we want to change the world ... we need to start at homeI believe in the power of words Words can change a persons life ... so choose your words wisely
________________________________________________________ ________________________________________________________
I am a HUGE supporter of Canada's Troops and of course RED FRIDAYS ... I believe we, as a country, have been to quiet for to long ... we need to show the men and women of the Canadian Forces our support and pride ...and not just in a subtle way ... LOUD AND CLEAR ... in a VERY VISIBLE way ... Wear RED on Fridays ... let our troops and the world know that Canada believes in and takes pride in our troops!!!

My Interests

I have so many ... lol I like reading and writing (although I dont have much time for either) I spend a lot of time spreading the word about Red Fridays (Canada version) and the scrapbook that I am working on to send overseas

I'd like to meet:

people who are REAL ....what do I mean?
I mean if you have to PRETEND to be someone you are not just to make others happy ... I don't want to know you .... Be honest with yourself, be yourself
You can never have to many friends.... Honest and true friends are rare

I've had the pleasure of meeting some interesting people in my life ... the prime minister of Canada, General Rick Hillier, Canada AM host Beverly Thomson, Rick Mercer ... who do I hope to meet in the future?
Julian Austin!!! He's a GREAT canadian and proud of our troops
UPDATE: Met him ... Haha ... now we are the RED TEAM!!!!I would love to meet all the people who have shown support for our troops ... just so I could shake their hands and sa y 'thank you'

Music:

I love music ... it's so powerful why limit yourself to one 'type' ?

Movies:

I like movies ... even though I dont always like the movie ... I still like to watch them ... should have been a critic!

Television:

LOST & CSI (the original and Miami) Hells Kitchen is a good show too .. hehe

Books:

I love books ... historical romance is the best ... you get GREAT romance AND history!! Whooo hoooo

Heroes:

My Husband .... ...... my kids, my family! OH ... and lets not forget ....
My dog! He loves me for who I am ... all the time ... no matter how aweful I look ... LOL
