Places I've been

I went to High School in Santa Monica, CA. Come out the front of the school and look at the Pacific Ocean each and every day! Been to lots of school. At first because I wanted to prove to myself I really did have a brain, and later because upper division education is incredible. For me, discovereing new ideas and exploring all the many, many things I don't know and beginning to uncover is the very best. Been to Canada, traveled all over Mexico, and love New York City! The ocean and islands sitting in it are incredible. Europe has the best food!

More about me

I am alive and kicking and without a doubt a work in progress.

I am free of work for the first time since I was 16 years old.  It's scary and so challanging.   I am, as so many, laid off.  This is just so good! I have learned more, explored more, and most importantly appreciated more than in many, many years.

I have worked in social services all my adult life.  Good work, lousy pay!  To be present when someone, who has no chance of making it, does so is  truly an extraordinary experience.  I hope I've learned enough to help myself when I need it now.

I am exploring the possibilites of working at home.  Very exciting and a little scary.  But I am going to go for it! 

I love this site.  Visit every day.

Favorite Quotes

"Settling for comfort in discomfort." M. Barr “Our deepest fear is not that we are inadequate. Our deepest fear is that we are powerful beyond measure. It is our light, not our darkness, that frightens us most. We ask ourselves, 'Who am I to be brilliant, gorgeous, talented, and famous?' Actually, who are you not to be? You are a child of God. Your playing small does not serve the world. There is nothing enlightened about shrinking so that people won't feel insecure around you. We were born to make manifest the glory of God that is within us. It's not just in some of us; it's in all of us. And when we let our own light shine, we unconsciously give other people permission to do the same. As we are liberated from our own fear, our presence automatically liberates others.” Nelson Mandela
