I am a child of the Lord and Lady.
I wonder what lessons my life shall teach me in the future.
I hear the whimper of Love’s lost hope when someone is alone.
I see an otter of mystic silver fur swimming in the murky river of my emotions.
I want the river to flow into the Sea of Happiness.
I am a child of the Lord and Lady.
I pretend that I am the wind, when in reality I am a cloud.
I feel a great sense of pity for those around me and myself.
I touch my fragile heart to warm it, but it only shatters.
I worry whether or not I am seen as the lonely child I am.
I cry when hope becomes a stale memory.
I am a child of the Lord and Lady.
I understand my mind and actions, but not my heart.
I say much more than I think, and too little of what I feel.
I dream for unguided moments of reverie.
I try to show my true colors, without spilling others’ paint.
I hope to swim with the otter from the river to the sea.
I am a child of the Lord and Lady.

My Interests



----

I'd like to meet:



First off, I have a big heart, and not just for people. I've gone through my aches and breaks, and now I feel a lot more confident about what I want for my heart. I'm looking for someone whose heart is strong enough to not only love themselves, but those around them. This is the key to compromise, so you'd have to be able to know the difference between what you want, what someone else wants, and the middle road. An extreme receiver is never able to nurture a relationship, and an extreme giver is bound for a life of bitterness. Know thyself in love before knowing thy neighbors, or ye shall be plagued by the contagion of selfishness, and love shall be further from thy grasp. Scary, right?

I'm somewhat of a deep thinker, if you hadn't noticed (and sarcastic, at times). In some cases, my contemplation can seem rude, as if I'm ignoring you or avoiding a confrontation. In truth, I try to weigh my words carefully when it's important, and sometimes I simply don't know how to respond. I'm not the best at social interaction. Otherwise, I tend to be a little too clever; friends have accused me of picking apart their words. In my own defense, if I do that with you, I am either using it as a defense mechanism to keep my more vulnerable self unexposed, or I have simply come to know you well and do not think a few grammatical corrections will blemish our friendship. I am weird.

Speaking of which, I follow a pagan path that is best describe as Shamanic Witch. My beliefs stem from Native American religions, Wiccan teachings, and the practice of magick. If you can't handle a guy that does a spell now and then, or has a lot of friends that share similar beliefs, then I know there is someone better for you than I, but it was nice to meet you. If you want to use me for my magickal abilities, then you'll find that hard, for I prefer a solitary approach. I practice witchcraft (not to be confused with Satan-worship, thank you) in privacy, or with my circle mates. With that territory comes a love of nature and all living things. I get a shiver down my spine when I kill an insect that has infiltrated my home, and I always apologize to its spirit. I am a torn spirit, one part environmentalist and one part humanitarian. If you can understand the depth of that conflict, then we already have something to talk about!

And the other important fact that I feel necessary to share is this: I grew up with an aversion to alcohol, for several reasons that I can discuss in length one-on-one. To sum it up, I am only recently coming to accept the place of alcohol in this world, and I will take very small samplings. However, I still have some misgivings about being around inebriated people, whether they are strangers or friends (loved ones are the hardest to be around). I am trying to open up and loosen up, but don't expect to turn me on to drinking. If you try, I will definitely see that as an attack on my personal values and that I can not allow. On the other hand, I would appreciate more exposure to alcohol (as in, being around it and just tasting it, as mentioned earlier) with a responsible individual that knows and respects my boundaries.

I know, I'm challenging, but I already have wonderful friends that accept me as I am. And now I have an amazing boyfriend. Adam may not realize, but he's everything I've asked for, and more! Mrow!

Your Element Is Water
A bit of a contradiction, you can seem both lighthearted and serious. That's because you're good at going with the flow - but you also are deep. Highly intuitive, you tune in to people's emotions and moods easily. You are able to tap into deep emotional connections and connect with others. You prefer a smooth, harmonious life - but you can navigate your way around waves. You have a knack for getting people to get along and making life a little more peaceful. What's Your Element?
The Keys to Your Heart
You are attracted to those who are unbridled, untrammeled, and free.
In love, you feel the most alive when everything is uncertain, one moment heaven... the next moment hell.
You'd like your lover to think you are stylish and alluring.
You would be forced to break up with someone who was insecure and in constant need of reassurance.
Your ideal relationship is lasting. You want a relationship that looks to the future... one you can grow with.
Your risk of cheating is low. Even if you're tempted, you'd try hard not to do it.
You think of marriage something you've always wanted... though you haven't really thought about it.
In this moment, you think of love as commitment. Love only works when both people are totally devoted. What Are The Keys To Your Heart?
Your Power Color Is Red-Orange
At Your Highest:
You are warm, sensitive, and focused on your personal growth.
At Your Lowest:
You become defensive and critical if you feel attacked.
In Love:
You are loyal - but you demand the respect you deserve.
How You're Attractive:
You are very affectionate and inspire trust.
Your Eternal Question:
"Am I Respected?" What's Your Power Color? Which ArchAngel are you most like?
Rafael. You're most like the ArchAngel of Healing. You want people to shape up, and you nag. But you mean well, and you're well loved despite it. Or because of it. You bring the donuts even as you tell people to eat more veggies.

Trail of tears
Reservation
Alcohol
Assimilation
Nearly murdered
Buffalo
Small pox fever
And guns of woe
So much violence
So much past
Now our time
Goes by too fast
I’ve read the history
Looked at living proof
Myself, within the mirror
I know the modern truth
And it hurts
What more than thorns
For roses are so lovely
Much more than any pain
I have ever felt
And all I want is rain
To soothe the welt
That rests in my heart
Shaman wisdom
Love and truth
Ancestral power
Age and youth
And this the balance
That I honor
Is now so twisted
But why, wherefore?
Scholarships
Trust funds spent
Foolish gangs
Broken, bent
Such pain
It comes upon me once again.
