Hello! Thanks for visiting my bio page to find out more about me. I shall graciously oblige your interest (and perhaps be too telling in the process)...
I am a classic Gemini with a Life Path Number of 7, which makes me both a very strong intellectual and a spiritual seeker. I tend to be an info-nerd and am proud of it. As a result of who I was born to be, I am an avid consumer and enthusiastic sharer of any and all kinds of information. I never run out of things to say, and have an answer for everything (or so my mother always told me).
Subsequently, I have surpassed the decade mark of actively pursuing my formal education as well as spiritual and philosophical studies. I've had more majors, specialties, and certifications (in all arenas) purely for the love of learning than Carter probably had liver pills. Psychology and spirituality are the areas that continue to maintain my strongest interest while other areas run the gamut from hot to cold and then back again once I come across something new that's related. Oh, and writing, too! I've been writing publicly since 2006 under my given name, abbreviations of it and totally made-up ones as well.
My most important job in this life, over being a holistic therapist, teacher, writer, student, coach and girl's organization leader (you could say I get around, lol) is being a mom (and just in case you are wondering, I pass my 42 yearly background checks with flying colors, so really - I'm not a nut). I put on my Superwoman cape every morning for my son and daughter and play the rounds of stay-at-home-mom, wife, student and career-woman. Nonetheless, out of all the hats I wear, Mom (and chauffer and bank) takes priority. I also love animals, and have what is often referred to by those that have visited - a private zoo (children included).
Hobbies are all over the map, though I love drawing, painting, reading, cleaning (lol), gardening, being outside, (breaking things on occassion as I'm a certifiable klutz) and starting 542 off-the-wall and unrelated projects all at the same time. I also love gritty comedy, splatter-gore horror flicks, anything wierd or paranormal, and political and religious debating (yes, I go there, and am quite tickled when the opportunity arises).
I am also rebellious, mischevious, and love to make people laugh. I relish entertaining my children daily by giving them outlandish, crazy stories instead of simple answers to their silly (and highly repetiitive) questions. I am repaid with lots of eye-rolling, head shaking, and giggling, which I adore more than anything.
So taking into consideration the aformentioned and coupling it with the fact that I am one of those really annoying people who is always curious, always asking questions (talks through movies and sings to 99 percent of songs on the radio when in the car, that is when I'm not repeatedly channel surfing), my intention is to write about a wide range of subjects here, since virtually everything is interesting, fascinating, or important to me. My self-appointed mission in life is to gather, experience, share, inspire, and inform. I look forward to your joining me for the ride.
"The journey between what you once were and who you are now becoming is where the dance of life really takes place." -Barbara DeAngelis
