"I find that being with a soul mate, that kindred spirit that will be with me for a lifetime, can be a frightening thing. She can pull from my dark places, my secret rooms and deepest fears. Instinct can flood me with the overwhelming need to flee, to repel. And as I do, I become aware that this universe is curved, and that love, like light will bend and return to it's source." "I was never one to patiently pick up broken fragments and glue them together again and tell myself that the mended whole was as good as new. What is broken is broken -- and I'd rather remember it as it was at its best than mend it and see the broken places as long as I lived." Margaret Mitchell

Took my burner cherry at pdf, making me the luckiest brand new baby burner ever! Enlightened me on the beauty of what it is to be a "real" burner. She never fails to inspire, connect, give, love, and laugh. Her kindness and fun overflows to everyone around her.

I've been meaning to write a testimonial that expresses how much
I value having this woman as a friend, a confidant, a campmate, and so much more. I don't feel like I have the ability to say how I appreciate having Armadillo in my life, but while reading through a book of poetry by one of my favorite poets, I came across this poem, and was reminded of her, and of of her strength, passion, and sense of humor. The poem says so much, and is curiously poignant, so here it is.... COME INTO ANIMAL PRESENCE by Denise Levertov (with a minor edit) Come into animal presence No man is so guileless as the serpent. The lonely white rabbit on the roof is a star twitching its ears at the rain. The llama intricately folding its hind legs to be seated not disdains but mildly disregards human approval. What joy when the insouciant armadillo glances at us and doesn't quicken her trotting across the track into the palm brush. What is this joy? That no animal falters, but knows what it must do? That the snake has no blemish, that the rabbit inspects his strange surroundings in white star-silence? The llama rests in dignity, the armadillo has some intention to pursue in the palm-forest. Those who were sacred have remained so, holiness does not dissolve, it is a presence of bronze, only the sight that saw it faltered and turned from it. An old joy returns in holy presence.

Armadillo is my elf sister. Tiptoeing oh so softly through the chaos. She whispers to me when I sleep and gives me magic to live by. She is a quiet resilient shimmering prescence that shows me hope, faith and the grace of humor. She has scraped me off the street more than once and has flown me to safety. (even though I threwup in her shoes and slept naked in her anniversary bed!). Fly away home on your light fairy wings sister elf...and shine bright!
