About Me

I'll remember 2006 as a period of rapid and significant transformations for me. Endings, new beginnings, and being in a place now, spiritually, emotionally, and physically, I didn't think I'd be at so soon, definately not in a matter of months and I'm very grateful. As the time to give thanks comes and I reflect on a year that could have been 2 in itself, from the way it began to the way it draws to a close, I thank God for the strength and the wisdom he has given me. I'm grateful for all the decisions I've made in my life. Even if they didn't seem right at the time, I thank Him for allowing me the experience and the intelligence that stemmed from the consequences of those choices. Whether they were good or bad, I thank Him for the drive to use those tools and create a better person out of me and even better situations surrounding me. For that I have no regrets, and if I had to do it over again, I'd do it just the same, because there were reasons and purposes for them all. Lastly, I thank Him for the maturity to live independently and simultaneously embrace love. With that I can see the end of this year and the beginning of the next saying and feeling from the bottom of my heart: Life is good and most importantly, God is good. ALL THE TIME!

My Interests

Making and listening to good music (Yes..I'll have a Music Page--when the time is right), Reading, Writing, Cooking, Traveling, Boxing, Hanging with friends, Fishing, Making money, Working, yes working (might be boring to some, but I enjoy what I do 40hrs a week, I have to use my brain and it LOVES the exercise) Spending time with my family and the love of my life. Lots of other stuff and I love trying new stuff, so this list is virtually endless...

I'd like to meet:


Your Birthdate: October 7
You are an island. You don't need anyone else to make you happy.
And though you see yourself as a loner, people are drawn to you.
Deep and sensitive, you tend to impress others with your insights.
You also tend to be psychic - so listen to that inner voice!

Your strength: Your self sufficiency

Your weakness: You despise authority

Your power color: Maroon

Your power symbol: Hammer

Your power month: July What Does Your Birth Date Mean?
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 to your lover to think you are stylish and alluring.

You would be forced to break up with someone who was ruthless, cold-blooded, and sarcastic.

Your ideal relationship is lasting. You want a relationship that looks to the future... one you can grow with.

Your risk of cheating is zero. You care about society and morality. You would never break a commitment.

You think of marriage as something precious. You'll treasure marriage and treat it as sacred.

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?
You Are Aphrodite!
A total shining star with a ton of admirers
And no wonder: you live life to the fullest!
When things get bad, you can easily take off to a happier place
But occasionally, you need to deal with problems head on What Goddess Are You?

Music:

Jazz, Rhythm and Blues, Gospel, Hip-Hop, Pop, Soft Rock, Alternative, Classical, 50's, 60's, 70's, 80's, and 90's --- that makes me feel old.

Books:

The Bible-King James Version, I like to read along when I'm in church, always bring your own because the ones in the pew might have you a little lost for a moment.
