About Me:

I am still searching for my “self.” The things I do and love are not necessarily the things I set out to become. I am a mother and will give all that I am to my children but they do not define me, nor I them. The same can be said for my marriage. I consider my vows to my husband as sacred and I wear my marriage and my devotion proudly but I rarely call myself “wife.” The things I aspire to be, the things I dreamed for myself as a child remain unchallenged, dormant and un-focused. Perhaps here, in this gentle forum, I can begin the journey towards a title of uniqueness– a selfishly created title all my own.

We all flow from one fountain Soul. All are expressions of one Love. God does not appear, and flow out, only from narrow chinks and round bored wells here and there in favored races and places, but He flows in grand undivided currents, shoreless and boundless over creeds and forms and all kinds of civilizations and peoples and beasts, saturating all and fountainizing all.
