Who am I?

Interesting question, one I suppose I'm not entirely sure of . To me, life is a discovery of who I am... Other bits and pieces are mostly enhancements or detriments to that knowledge.

I have many interests, mostly along the artistic lines.

Music, many types, classical mainly (being a piano teacher brings that out) but my tastes are eclectic and run the gambit. I write music and sing.

Theater; the self-discovery of good theatre fascinates me.

Art, visual and conceptual; I am a calligrapher and illuminator. Also an
art docent for the local elementary school for 15 years.

I adore books, of varying kind, mostly again the classics.

I was a dance major, danced Ballroom in competition and in Romania and Bulgaria.

I love Italian food, Mexican, Chinese, French and American...I love people, and adore trying to please. I have a need to be needed I guess, before I'll feel comfortable opening up and sharing anything at all. I could be many uncomplimentary things, but none of them are intentional.

My hair is my one vanity, thick long and deep auburn. I love dark nights with warm cocoa and sweet unending conversation. I am intensely sensual. I adhere strictly to the doctrine I have chosen to adopt. My imagination is food for more experiences than I'll ever participate in. I hate to cook and love to iron. I've never had a broken bone, or to a hospital (besides 4 babies ) (Whoops, amendment - Knee surgery just last year) or felt the intense anger of another. (This too must be amended in the last two years, much to my disappointment)

Talking is my second favorite activity, next to listening, but not on trivial matters. I want to get a Masters in psychology and am in my Jr year. I love having my feet rubbed, and nothing is a sensual as a back-rub. I am a Certified Massage Therapist.

I wear many 'hats' and play many roles, I am a compulsive person who tends to obsess on things until they are accomplished. I am sensitive, supportive, completely forgiving and fiercely loyal. I give my heart slowly, but when it is given... it is forever.

I adore Monty Python's Holy Grail, and have a side that is hardly seen by most. I dislike animals and children to a large extent, adore the colors red and purple and have an open mind about many things. I am unafraid of a mirror or self-examination, and love walking in the rain. Sunsets delight me, and I do not like being poked. I am intensely imperfect, striving constantly for perfections
in little leaps.

Much more to be discovered I suppose, but that is a start...
