: About Me

I'm a 28 year old, single mother of one beautiful little girl who is now 5. My 9 to 5 job has me pushing papers across a desk and answering phones, but most importantly, contributing to my late father's business, now owned by my wonderful stepmother. I live near the big city of Toronto, and though my small country hometown is where my heart is, I have made the best of living here for the last 6 years.

I'm a free spirit, a dreamer, a writer & an amateur photographer. I've been described as the girl with 'kaleidoscope eyes' and 'writer of words, face with no expression'. I have a passion for astrology, higher self awareness, understanding people, relationships and the magic that love brings to our lives.

I'm a firm believer that one's beliefs will become their reality.
I see every challenge and obstacle in life as another opportunity to expand our horizons, become stronger and improve ourselves.
I think that everything happens for a reason, there's no coincidences in life.
I believe we all have a given purpose, though I haven't figured out who gave it to us or what my specific purpose is.

Every day can be bright if we so choose to see it that way.
Every mountain climbed requires a peak to be a mountain, so the tougher and longer the climb, the more we shall see from the peak when we reach it.

My bottom line perspective is that we all have 2 common denominators in life....birth and death...it's what we do in between those two guaranteed moments that means the most! Love life and it will love you back!

My passion is ...

Love

I know too much about ...

nothing - one can never know enough!

My parents always told me ...

to trust my gut instinct and to know that in the end, everything will be OK!

My childhood ambition ...

to one day marry and have a family! To surround myself with love!

My favorite memory ...

is of my father!

Why I write ...

because it releases a part of me that is otherwise left unleashed.

What I am reading/watching/listening to ...

always listening to music!

My first job ...

was the best - store clerk at a cheese factory outlet - I loved it!

My best moment ...

was when I became a mother of the most precious child in the world!

My inspiration ...

comes through music!

Love or Lack Thereof. I've loved..... and been loved. I've lost love..... and I've had to let go. I've loved unconditionally..... and I've convinced myself of love that didn't really exist. I've sacrificed because of love. I've given in because of love. I've let others down for the one I've loved. and put myself aside for the one I've loved. I am loved and I do love, but I am not loved the way I would love to be loved. I want love that is wholesome, love that is true, love that is honest, to be loved through and through. To feel a love that breeds unity, and a love pure and sweet love that...
