My Testimonials

August 19, 2008
I was sad and needed cheering up, and remembered that there was someone on tribes who made me smile... so here I am, and sure enough, just seeing her page again made happy!

Mermaid (Traci) is the tribe Mama of the friendliest Tribe on the net, she IS COMF-y! I am so fortunate to have such a loving compassionate person as a friend, she is always there when you need comfort, she is there to share your laughter and she is much loved and respected by those that know her. i am so grateful our paths crossed and I can't wait to meet her when I cross the big pond next year.

Love and blessings to you, my Fishy Friend, Michy

Mermaid is one sweet lady, no denying thata vision beneath and above the waves. She is the essence of patience and strength a true model for those of us who have gotten the chance to learn just a little about her. She is the warden of the waters of life, so all you littering bastards beware, she may be patient but she will send a Kraken after your sorry asses.

Traci... A wonderful woman, with a great sense of humour, a creative soul and a caring heart. I'm glad she's my friend...
August 30, 2006
Traci is one of those rare beings who looks for every opportunity to laugh and share in a joke and a smile. She is imaginative, creative, crafty, witty, silly, zany, bonkers, wise, and loving and she gives great hugs :)
She is the ocean's gift to mankind, bringing the refreshing inspiration of the sea mist and the deep understanding of the dark depths, all in one radiant spirit. May the foam of the sea tickle your toes and spray of the waves twinkle your nose. Best blessings for you and yours wherever you may find yourselves.

Mermaid secrets

Gender
Female
Location
about me
Candles, incense and music. Vegetarian...close to vegan but cant claim it. Barefoot and no drama. Single mom of a 22 yr old boy and a 16 yr old girl who are the best thing that's ever happened to me. The cool thing is...our lives revolve around each other but we encourage each other to have our own lives. It works out well. I'm proud of them and try to live my life so they'll be proud of me. One of those girls who doesn't quite fit into a category (I guess that Kiersey Temperament test was right when it said less than 1% of the population has my temperament: Idealist/Healer...is that why perfect strangers tell me their life stories??) Love to laugh and try to live life as if each day is the last...it keeps things in perspective and helps me remember to show love and kindness. Peace.

Love is mysterious and ancient. Everyone knows this...but not everyone understands it.

He had conjured her into his life. She always wondered how it had happened...knew it was something mysterious...but she couldnt put her finger on it. He wasnt someone she would have chosen...it wasnt at a moment she would have chosen anyone and yet...when he held his hand out to her she had taken it. She knew she had too...but never understood why. And this ancient and mysterious thing held her tightly... read more

There are so many people terrified (terrorized?) by this new "pandemic" that I thought I would pass on some things Ive learned about it.

You may find it to be "conspiracy theory" or...like me...you may agree that the really scary part is not the flu itself...but instead...why the flu...and the resulting terror...exists.

Keep an open mind...do your own research...and see what you think.

I urge you though to PLEASE EDUCATE YOURSELF and know exactly what you are taking into your body an... read more

He came a-tapping late one night
back lit by a pixies light

and being young I let him in
substance of my girlish whims

"I'm youth! I'm joy!" He said to me
"I know" I answered breathlessly

He touched my face it stopped my heart
He had gifts he would impart

But first we went to Tir-Na-Og
flying through the pea soup fog

Tales were told and songs were sung
in "Land of the Forever Young"

He bade me keep a childlike mind
And joy and light Id always find

"Be positive t... read more

Im entering a monthly contest in Writers Digest magazine. They give you a prompt and you have to write a 750 word or shorter story. They seem to get anywhere from 500 to over 1000 entries a month and published authors even enter so Im not EXPECTING to win but I am hoping.
If you win you get published in the magazine which may not seem like much but is huge exposure in the writing world apparently...to agents and publishers and other writers. I'd like to get some feedback so be honest and te... read more

Posting to the Froud website for consideration for their September Poetry page. Inspired by the Fairie Gloominous Doom from the Bad side of the Good fairies/Bad Fairies book.

August Past...

This was the month of the Gloominous Doom.
It must be, we all felt him here.
In the depths of depression he held onto our globe
holding lost hopes & thinking kept clear.

We've been muddled and moaning and heavy with gloom
as his wings leaked away all our light.
And his pessimism made us say..... read more
