: About Me

Hi Everyone....well, I guess I'm supposed to tell you a little bit about ME.....so, here goes... I have 3 awesome kids....I am an artist at heart, I love to paint....I decided to check out helium to see what it was all about,and when I got here, I thought,hmmmm....ok....so what would I write about? How would I start...after going over different topics in my head, I realized that if my articles were going to be any good, or at all interesting, I better stick to what I know....My life....I have had a complicated but very blessed life...I'm nothing special, just an average person in a world full of stars....but as a single parent I can share all the crazy stories with you...whether it's about my daughters' and the constant drama, or if it's about my son and his obsession with yugio, and pokemon cards, I'll be honest, but sensitive and I'll try to give you a variety of topics to keep you interested...In recent months I have gone through a lot of changes...I lost my Dad on May 08, 2007...and since then have been on a roller coaster ride of emotions...I am the type who can be in a room full of people and feel completely alone...the one who wears a smile to mask the scars that my many tears have left upon my face...I welcome any feedback on my writings, and thank you in advance for allowing me, and people like me to read your words..as a writer I do know how personal some of your stories are and I feel honored each time I read something new.

My passion is ...

Writing, unleashing thought -loving my kids giving them the wisdom and love to grow and dream

I know too much about ...

a broken heart, but..I still welcome any new love I might get because there is nothing like the feeling of being " In Love"

My parents always told me ...

you're so creative!

My childhood ambition ...

I wanted to be an artist and write songs

My favorite memory ...

Last Easter, the whole family was together to celebrate and my Dad was so happy

Why I write ...

I feel it's a form of release, and I think it's a way to turn negatives into possitives

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

The Beatles, The Doors

My first job ...

selling candy door to door

My best moment ...

realizing that everything I've gone through in my life made me into a beautiful person

My inspiration ...

My DAD is my inspiration....He is a God fearing Man who never judges anyone, he suffers a lot but never complains, he lifts my spirit on a daily basis, He reminds me that even though people may suck, you have to try to see the good in them....He always shares the Bible with me and shares his wisdom....and he raised me to be confident, honest, and most of all to love.

I saw you yesterday, though you didn't recognize my face.. Maybe it's because we passed each other in an unfamiliar place.. The wind blew through the trees, the people went about their day.. I wanted so badly to speak to you, yet I had no words to say.. I keep the memories of us deep inside hoping one day they'll be gone.. I find myself thinking, " what could've been ", then remind myself that it's wrong.. Things happen for a reason even when we don't understand.. I've finally forgotten the way it felt to have you hold my hand.. We've both moved on, and life has found a way to he...
