A very good question...who am I? Who I am evolves and is always changing, like all beings, even cats. I have been many things to many people over the years. A daughter, a hopeless teenager, a wife, a mother, a devorcee, a champion, a failure and a comfort. And many other things in between, and yes, even occasionally a bitch. I have been a student, an activist, a non-conformist, religious, spiritual, a rebel, and at times the opposites of these things. I think you get this part. Now on to the part of letting you know a bit more about me.
Most of us are accustomed to the profile about me sections on most social networking sites. One of the questions is religious views. Let me start there. I am not religious, I am spiritual. There is a difference, believe me! I was raised in a Methodist/Church of Christ upbringing. I was even a member of the Christian Church (Disciples of Christ) for several years. But being the questioning being I was raised to be, by my father, there were questions that just could not be answered by any of these dogmas. I have searched and learned about many religions through the years since. I have adopted some beliefs from all of them but mostly I have formed my own thoughts and ideas myself. I do not attend a wood and brick church. The great outdoors is my church. I don't try to convert anyone else to my beliefs. I ask that you don't try to convert me to yours. I will discourse with you all day long but I will not 'come over' or be 'saved'. I am comfortable in myself.
The next big question is political views. My view is who needs them? Do demicraps fighting with republicraps about what is best for me do one thing to improve my standard of living? Hell no! My view is do the right thing!
Where was I born? In a hospital. And you? Some things I just don't put out there for everyone to know. Sorry :). But if we get to be good enough friends I might tell you ;)
Where do I live? In an abode. And you? Again there is only so much I am comfortable putting out there for everyone to know. Oklahoma is sufficient;)
Where did I go to school? In a small school system where teachers still controlled the classroom and discipline wasn't a problem.
Do I have children? Yes I have two.
Am I married or divorced? What, are you just looking for a date? I am married, ten years this year.
What are my hobbies? I love to write and read. I collect dragons (no surprise there is there?), castles and Merlins. I used to enjoy doing crafts in years past. My fingers and hands don't work so well anymore :(. I really enjoy learning!
Likes/Dislikes? Likes would be honest people. Dislikes would be dishonest people.
Has this answered any questions yet? I hope so. I know some are kind of vague. But I have reached a point of being very gunshy about putting too much out there about myself. Only people I am comfortable friends with really get much more info out of me. Other than what can be picked up in my writing.
I write poetry, short stories and some really long stories LOL. I also get an occasional urge to rant and share it to see what others can help me learn from whatever is bugging me. I aspire to be a published writer. Hopefully published more than once LOL. Being disabled I can no longer do the labor jobs that I am limited to by my lack of formal education. But I can write and hope to be able to make some kind of living at it eventually.
If you, dear reader have any questions or comments, feel free to leave me a comment!
