    About Me

    Though shalt not be a victim, thou shalt not be a perpetrator and above all, thou shalt not be a bystander. Between thought and expression lies a lifetime. However long the night, dawn will break. Character comes from courage, courage from fear, fear is courage in action. How clever you are, my dear! You never mean a single word you say. Always be a first rate version of yourself and not a second rate version of someone else. Sleep is a symptom of caffeine deprevation. Every human being is the author of his own health or disease. It is better to be hated for what you are than to be loved for what you are not. If they matter then they don't mind and if they mind then they just don't matter. Because narrow is the gate and difficult is the way which leads to life and there are few who find it. Knowledge talks, wisdom listens. Don't let your victories go to your head or your failures to your heart. It is better to die on your feet than to live on your knees.

    Interests

    I hold a blue belt in Tae Kwon Do, use to swim competitively. Love the outdoors, hiking, camping, water sports, traveling. I love to drive..anything with wheels and a motor baby! One of my fantasys would be to race cars. Not necessarily Nascar, but on any level! Use to race the boys around here on the local streets way back in the day! Lots o fun! Love to cook (I make a mean Redpepper Hummus) and eat lots of yummy foods! I love to try new things, love to travel, and music is my greatest form of expression.I have two boys they are 11 and 2. They are the reason I am still here today. I am a go getter and meet challenges head on. I may fall down but you can be sure I'll get back up! I am quick and to the point. No Bull here :) I am always seeking to improve my self, my life. This year is the year of health for me.
