I am a very spiritual person. The closest I can come to my belief system would be Wiccan/Gnostic. I quest for knowledge and I believe we are graced to live in a time when it becomes more available to us. Those who choose believe their religious leaders on blind faith alone are generally blind to the truth. We live in an age where we are no longer illiterate, nor should we live in fear of expressing our beliefs if they differ from the norm. I for one will continue to study and learn, read and think until the day I meet my maker. My beliefs however are very diverse so I just like to call myself Eclectic. If you want to know more about my belief system you can visit the webpages I worked on for 3 years at www.geocities.com/nightstorm2004/index ~ they are just full of information and tidbits.
I have practiced for years and have become quite good at reading tarot cards and feel quite blessed to be able to do this for family and friends. I believe every now and again we can all use guidance in our lives to help us make decisions or come to an understanding of why we are going through a particular situation.
I'd like to meet:
I have already met some wonderful people here with whom I have had a great deal of fun.
I am always open to meeting new people, however I am particular as to who I will add. If you are a band, from home sales, a people collector for numbers don't bother trying to add me.
I am not into drama, I'm here for a good time not a long time and life has enough drama.
If you are looking for a significant relationship or a wife and you don't know me don't bother. Don't send emails telling me how much you love me or using terms of endearment...you are so wasting your time and mine.
Music:
I can't say that I have a favourite band. I like all kinds of music and if I like a song and it's meaningful to me I listen to it. If it's really meaningful I listen to it over and over and over again. To me the song has to have meaning, the words have to touch me or make me feel I want to dance.
Movies:
I don't unfortunately get a chance to watch a lot of movies. I love horror films though and storylines that are thought provoking. With working shift work though it is difficult to find the time to watch a movie and stay awake during it.
Television:
Again I don't watch a lot of television but I have it on a lot of the time for noise. Mostly my television is set to HGTV because I love to watch decorating shows. I have always loved to look inside houses and see what people do to make their houses homes ~ I even sold real estate years ago. I didn't do it for long I wasn't cut throat enough to convince families to spend more money than they could afford for something they didn't really need...lol. I also like anything a little bit off as my mother describes it. I love shows that have psychic theme or anything about true hauntings such as Most Haunted, Rescue Mediums, A Haunting, Ghostly Encounters and Ghost Whisperer and Medium. I also love Sell This House, House Hunters and Buy Me and What Not to Wear (because personally I usually don't have a clue...).
Books:
I read an average of 2 to 3 books a week. Lately I have been doing a lot of research on the Magdalene Conspiracy, future predictions and Goddesses and Angels. I have a lot of favourite authors and my taste in reading is about as eclectic as my beliefs. Some of my favourite authors are Sylvia Browne, Laurell K. Hamilton, J. D. Robb, Janet Evanovich, Robin Cook, Patricia Cornwell, P. C. Cast, MaryJanice Davidson, Christine Feehan, Kay Hooper, Dean Kootnz and James Patterson. I find after I have done heavy reading of a few books that really require me to pay attention and cross reference and think, that I have to split it up with just something fun and light and easy to read.....I'm very fond of vampire smut in that case.
Heroes:
Definately my parents. I had the greatest childhood and my family has always supported me 100% whether they agree with my choices or not. In my opinion there is nothing you can do that is better for those you love than to love them unconditionally and this is what I received from my parents. They have helped me grow, shaped and encouraged me to be the person I am today. They also set a loving and strong example. Unfortunately we lost my Dad in 2002, and I miss him with every beat of my heart. I know that he is with my always guiding me and watching over us all.
Without question...my daughters Shari and Andrea. They are the strength of my soul. On those days when you think you just can't handle anymore and the world has thrown enough at you...I look at my girls and I get up and keep going. I want to set a postive example for them and I hope that I have done that. I'm not perfect no parent is and I have told the girls I will make mistakes but I hope they feel that there isn't anything they can't talk to me about and if they are in trouble I want them to feel they can come to me. We have shared a lot of tears and pain, laughter and joy over the years and I know I have been blessed.
My granddaughter Audree...to say she has changed my life would be an understatement. She has had my heart since before she was born. From the moment I cut the cord and first saw her I was lost. Everyday with her is a new beginning and so look forward to our special times we spend together. She brings laughter and joy to our lives. The fact that when she was born we were able to see so much of my father in her was a true blessings and gift. As she grows she is starting to look more like her Mommy each day and it brings me back to when my daughters were small. Time just flies so fast and we have to cherish every minute.
My cousin Christine, although she is so much more to me than that. She is my best friend, my family, my confident, my partner in crime. She's someone I can turn to when the going gets rough and she's one of the first people besides my mom with whom I share all my joys and sorrows. She has a really difficult life yet greets each day with a smile and a positive attitude. She inspires me to be more.
