I am here for Friends

About Me

At this point in my fitness quest -I do not compete against others, just myself - seeking self-improvement always, inside & out.Sooooo... it's about time I update my myspace here! Yes, I took my ACE (American Council on Exercise) test on November 10th and passed! Yeah!!! So I am officially certified. Next for me is a practical training course in December, then somewhere around the beginning of the year I will start working part-time in my new profession! It's been quite a journey and I am looking forward to my new career in the fitness industry.I must say THANK YOU to all my fitness friends who keep me motivated & help point me in the right direction!!! Much appreciation & respect to you all.The Hearts Eye -For what the eye sees is but the top layer of existence, for only without eyes may one see much deeper, as the heart without vision sees more depth than the eyes will ever encounter.Gillian, 2006

My Interests

I'd like to meet:

Jesus of course!For when you are in step with Christ, you are out of step with the world.

Music:

My Son WHITE CHOCOLATE began recording his rap music just a couple months ago. He is in the process of writing & recording his first CD. It is so much fun watching the creative process as he writes his lyrics to go with the random beats he chooses to use. If you like his music hit him up with a friend request!

Books:

The Purpose Driven Life, Your Best Life Now - Daily Devotional - Currently reading Joyce Meyer - The Confident Woman.

Heroes:

Jesus and all the miracles he performed.
