With great power comes great responsibility

About Me


♥ My feet tread upon the essence of poetry
♥ Out of my mouth flows the songs of angels
♥ My fingers are as gentle as a child's whisper in the night
♥ I dare to speak the truth - bold, loud, unstoppable
♥ The light of the stars reflect in my eyes
♥ I bow at the sight of others...
♥ I dance with the passion of lovers
♥ I love as the light of the dawn
♥ I sing with the chorus of creation.
♥ I.
♥ Am.
♥ Free.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~*** I am Heather. I am myself, no other. I will never change - I am Godlike. I will always be. The rest of my possessions will fade, but I will remain here after it has wasted.
My life is my friends. The life of my love has captured my heart, and his name is Ian Benjamin. He is my beloved, and I adore him to the uttermost with all the fire in my being. I live for the sound of music. I will never tell my children that Santa is not real and angels don't exist. I am not delusional - I see the good more than the bad.
I am adventurous. I get lost easily, but I don't get scared. I take that opportunity to learn that much more. I laugh at almost anything. I don't tolerate ignorance, shallowness, or anything that is derogatory to anyone. I stand up for my friends, and I'm working on standing up for myself.
I love my life and all I have. I'm thoroughly blessed. I want to teach the world... I want to be an example. I want to teach by love. I want to leave a mark on the world when I leave. I want to leave it better than it was. "Do all the good that you can, by all the means that you can, in all the ways that you can, in all the places you can, at all the times you can, to all the people you can, as long as ever you can." - John Wesley.

My Interests

Do you hear me,
Talking to you
Across the water across the deep blue ocean
Under the open sky, oh my, baby I'm trying

Boy I hear you in my dreams
I feel your whisper across the sea
I keep you with me in my heart
You make it easier when life gets hard

Lucky I'm in love with my best friend
Lucky to have been where I have been
Lucky to be coming home again

They don't know how long it takes
Waiting for a love like this
Every time we say goodbye
I wish we had one more kiss
I'll wait for you I promise you, I will

Lucky I'm in love with my best friend
Lucky to have been where I have been
Lucky to be coming home again
Lucky we're in love every way
Lucky to have stayed where we have stayed
Lucky to be coming home someday

And so I'm sailing through the sea
To an island where we'll meet
You'll hear the music fill the air
I'll put a flower in your hair

though the breezes through trees
Move so pretty you're all I see
As the world keeps spinning round
You hold me right here right now

Lucky I'm in love with my best friend
Lucky to have been where I have been
Lucky to be coming home again
Lucky we're in love every way
Lucky to have stayed where we have stayed
Lucky to be coming home someday

I'd like to meet:

If I ever had any dream to do anything... ♥I'd want to meet every single person in the world♥

I wouldn't mind meeting this guy either, actually...
