About Me

Can eat icecream for breakfast or any other time of day. My favorite coffee - Grande Breve extra hot no foam americano.I enjoy a nice glass of red wine or a cold stella artois. Live to travel, encounter culture and meet new people. Long to discover Beauty wherever I go. Love to Laugh!I feel deeply and express passionately(My mix of melancholy and independance). I am tenatious and very curious all at the same time.I love Romance. All forms of Art Expressions are interesting to me. I enjoy making mosaic art. My favorite painting is "The Lady of Shalot" from the Renaissance era, my soul resonates with her heart cry. CREATIVITY is a CALL for ME. Mid afternoon matinees are fabulous, particularly if they are dance movies or musicals. My favorite season is AUTUMN. Love Europe - everything about it! French Riveria - was my favorite family holiday destination and most beautiful place to behold. Can hardly wait to go to Tuscany! My favorite smell - is fresh, clean bedding straight out of the dryer. My favorite sound - rain at night while sleeping in a trailer or tent. mmm...the beauty of Thunderstorms. My favorite animal is a Dolphin -FREEDOM. My favorite color is RED - Pure PASSION. My favorite Flowers are : Pure White Roses or Calla Lillies. I love water and the beach.

Appreciate Confidence and or "in" Honesty at all times. Long to hear, embrace, understand and be understood. I choose to live excellently in a pursuit of a holistic life.

::MY RESULTS::You are a LOVER, a feeling type, whose spirituality comes primarily from the heart or emotions. You value freedom, independence, and spontaneity. Along with your gift of enthusiasm, you show us how to have fun and appreciate beauty. More than any other type, you know how to experience joy. This puts you in a unique position to experience God in the moment, to revel in what is happening around you, and to be in the present tense. To Lovers, God is a nurturing parent. Prayer for you is often extemporaneous, speaking to God about what is on your heart at the moment. Music moves you deeply; so does heartfelt preaching and worship. You believe that real faith must be shared. Consequently, many Lovers are interested in missions or in spreading the Gospel through the media. You are passionate about holy living. On the other hand, a Lover's impulsive behavior can get you in trouble. You sometimes focus on satisfying immediate desires to the detriment of investing in longer term needs. You have been known to exude a "holier-than-thou" attitude toward other spiritual types. That does not endear you to us. Guard against thinking that to be right everyone else must share a spiritual experience similar to yours. You also may need permission to acknowledge anger, disappointment, sadness, and doubt, and to allow yourself to be less than ideal. What Final Fantasy VII character are you?
You are TIFA. Sweet, caring, and I bet you can make a damn good B-52 shot...
