About Me

I think the greatest lesson I have learned is perfectly captured in this quote and I long to be the kind of person who lives these words."Truly loving another means letting go of all expectations. It means full acceptance, even celebration of another's personhood." Karen CaseyHere is another great quote about life:"In three words I can sum up everything I've learned about life: it goes on." Robert Frost

My Interests

"I love you. It's not a weight you must carry around. I love you. It's not a box that holds you in. I love you. It's not a standard you have to bear. I love you. It's not a sacrifice I make. I love you. It's not a pedestal you are frozen upon. I love you. It's not an expectation of perfection. I love you. It's not my life's whole purpose (or your's). I love you. It's not to make you change. I love you. It's not even to make you love me. I love you. It's as pure and simple as that. "

I'd like to meet:

Here is another good quote and oh so true:Remember, Ginger Rogers did everything Fred Astaire did, but backwards and in high heels. - Faith Whittlesey

Music:

Our scientific powers have outrun our spiritual powers; we have guided missiles and mis-guided men. - Martin Luther King Jr."Only a life lived for others is a life worthwhile." Albert Einstein"For most of history, Anonymous was a woman." Virginia Wolff

Heroes:

My aunt Maddi, who would have made an amazing doctor but was the oldest of 5 kids in a time when very few women were doctors and money was tight. She keeps me grounded and helps me dream. I admire her practicality and yet belief that there is good in everyone.
