about me
i am endlessly curious * easily amused * chronically silly * sensibly responsible * naturally nurturing * mostly spontaneous * highly sensual * shamelessly passionate * honoring my dark * cultivating my light * living with gusto * seeking the authentic * relishing the flux * learning my lessons * yearning to contribute * a beautiful spirit enjoying life as a perfectly flawed human being :)*

i am turned on most by creativity * humor * insight * passion * fearlessness * positivity * individuality * integrity * clean communications * insatiable curiosity * exploring the threshhold * pushing the edge * celebrating life * fostering intimacy * knee-buckling kisses * rhythm in body and soul * overall contentment * i look for that which reflects and complements what i have to offer. *

i am multi-faceted, a quiver of dichotomies, so much more than a profile, utterly unique. i am a daughter of eastern european immigrants, sister of two amazing women, born and raised in new england, broadened by a year in the philippines, universitied in california, recently emerged from a 25-year relationship, mother of a sensitive/intuitive 14-year old boy, teacher of many. i have worked in graphic design, software/internet design, and most recently, teaching K-8 and tutoring algebra. i seek kindred spirits who can truly *see* me and celebrate me, as i do them.

i have only recently joined tribe and some local burner groups, but feel an incredible sense of coming home where i am welcomed and understood and loved for who i am. i am eternally grateful to have that and feel that way.

ciao and many blessings,
until we meet and
greet again,
:)*

~ random thoughts . . . my musilog ~

you finally asked me
how i am.

i saw a space to
open wide.

i shared the darkest
deepest haunts
trusting you'd be
gentle.

not.

probing. poking. judging still.
not hearing
me.
not seeing
me.

seeing hearing only
your fears
your hurts
your sighs.

i wince at your
bark.
i clam shut at your
admonitions.
i escape with a
click.
i roar with
futility.

find relief with
an ear
a heart
a friend who knows
me.

and loves
me

i've decided to host them on flickr, and you should be able to view them with this link
www.flickr.com/photos/spa...2105394154/

if you are a close friend and would like access to about a dozen more private shots (hidden for professional reasons), mail me your personal email address, as it requires an invite to that email address and your login to flickr using that address. if i don't feel comfortable sharing, then i'll let you know that, too.

i've put *lots* of com... read more

... i drew my first breath of this lifetime.

happy birthday to me! this year in particular has been remarkable in that i have integrated so many of the lessons i have learned and am *living* my vision (see blog). i know who i am, i know what i like, and i am consciously reaching for the higher meaning of my existence.

it feels really good to be cultivating my circle of friends and focusing on the things i love.

it feels really good to come into my own.
