Stephen with a "p"

We're all human beings, capable of loving one another. The body parts are irrelevant.

About Me

Not out to prove anything, especially to myself. I feel like my life just began. This must be my 9th incarnation, and I have about 50 to go. No clue as to why such an old soul should feel so young at heart. I'm sensitive. Empathic. Emotional. Love to laugh. Stubborn when it comes to what I think is right. Can be a bit of a hot-head. Way too anal. Can be a real pain in the ass if I really set my mind on it. A bit of a rebel, with or without a cause. I'm just the sum of all my parts, take it or leave it.Scissor Sisters - I don't feel like dancing

You are The Sun

Happiness, Content, Joy.

The meanings for the Sun are fairly simple and consistent.

Young, healthy, new, fresh. The brain is working, things that were muddled come clear, everything falls into place, and everything seems to go your way.

The Sun is ruled by the Sun, of course. This is the light that comes after the long dark night, Apollo to the Moon's Diana. A positive card, it promises you your day in the sun. Glory, gain, triumph, pleasure, truth, success. As the moon symbolized inspiration from the unconscious, from dreams, this card symbolizes discoveries made fully consciousness and wide awake. You have an understanding and enjoyment of science and math, beautifully constructed music, carefully reasoned philosophy. It is a card of intellect, clarity of mind, and feelings of youthful energy.

What Tarot Card are You?
Take the Test to Find Out.

I'd like to meet:

Human beings who aren't afraid of making contact on all levels. Honesty, integrety, sense of self, and humour... and be beautiful, whatever form it takes. Above all else, be you for crying out loud. Self expression is the art of "being". Each of us has an innate need to tell it like it is, own our truth, and share it with the world... so share it! You are cordially invited to hit "do me" but I'd really appreciate a message of introduction. Don't make me do all the work here, all relationships are a two-way deal.

Music:

Lovin' all of it... Annie Lennox, Scissor Sisters, George Michael, Diana Krall, Madonna, Dionne like-you-don't-know-her-last-name Warwick, Rufus Wainwright, Namoi Brennet, Kelly Clarkson, Miss Janet, Amos Lee, Joni Mitchell, Dashboard Confessional, Beck, Bonnie Raitt, Jars of Clay, Counting Crows, Morrissey, The Smiths, Tina Turner, Eva Cassidy, Chris Botti, Pink, Everything But The Girl, Lisa Stansfield, Sarah Vaughn, Chris Gaines (Garth Brooks' alter ego, can you stand it?) and a helluvalot more than you could get a grip on...

Sunshine & Light

I love sharing stories about life and family. My girl Ali shared something about her family that made me step back and think.  This thinking made me think of my Mum. She's a ray of light mos...

Physician, heal thyself!

This morning I found myself revisting an old childhood phenomenon.  You know the one.  You wake up on Saturday, thinking it's a school day, so you race around a houseful of people who are ob...

The Jekyll and Hyde of Miss Peggy Lee

Just yesterday a dear friend of mine read a comment I'd made to a mutual friend's blog.  He asked me "How the hell can you be single?" Good question.  I was amazed at my eventual answer...

My 42.... drumroll, please!

1. Where were you 1 hour ago? Flossing and brushing, and it wasn't in the living room. 2. Who will be your next kiss? God knows. Wait.. No he doesn't. 3. Is there anything pink within 10 feet of you?...

Spelunking

I just wanted to write something a bit more personal.  This is just for you... you know who you are.  Hon, it is okay to struggle with depression.  I know I can't stand it myself, but I...

Necessary Crap

I believe one of the hardest things to learn in life is to walk away from unhealthy relationships and not have to have the last word.  I put them in a little puce box and leave it on a shelf dust...
