I simply AM!
I am 11 months home and they have been very rough on me... more than I would have ever imagined... but I am hoping that in the next month that all the choas and grieving will disapate and I will fel good about all of lif again. The first year anywhere seems the hardest... well and sometimes the last...
Thank you all for hanging in there with me and still coming around even when I wasn't really here much... I appreciate you each tremendously and am glad to call you my friends! Love to all =D
I now reside in Newberg, Oregon. It is quiet here, and it feels very good! I have truly wonderful people in my life here and am enjoying each day with them. .
I am healing wounds I thought, just months ago, would devour me... and I tell you... healing is a wonderful, yet sometimes painful, process that allows the spirit to soar again and laughter to be much more abundant than the tears!!!... so very well worth it!!!
God Bless YOU!
=)
I have always loved art in many forms. Photography and sculpting being two of my favorite! I love creating with the camera. I love showing things the way I see them with my heart and soul through my minds eyes and the camera allows me that. I also love poetry and expression and so that is why I often have words to accompany my photos. It is a journal of sorts, for myself, and a way to share myself with others... which I love doing as well. I am currently working on re-establishing myself back in the Pacific Northwest and in my Spiritual Realm.
I love life! I love people! I love learning!
Please feel free to write me anytime and just chat. Also thank you to all of you who have been so gracious with your comments as well as all of you who have taken the time to write me back with wonderful explanations of the questions I have asked in my quest to learn. I do so appreciate your time and thoughtfulness!!! TRULY!
And last but not least... Thanks to those of you that have written me and let me know that I have touched your life... That has been incredible to me to know that, because so many of you touch my life everyday with your work!
May God bless you each one, as we touch lives that we would never have had the chance to otherwise! Use your gifts! Change the world!
Have a most beautiful day and...
Smile MUCH and be warm!
