CURRENT MISSION To learn to be the best mum I can, and leave this place better for my being here ABOUT ME I am an artistic, empathetic, and enthusiastic person. I am married and a mother, and I frequently overcommit myself to all of my passions in life...There is just so much to see and do in this wonderfully short life. I sometimes take myself too seriously and then have a big belly laugh at myself. I am sensitive but tough at the sametime, resourceful, kind, stubborn, useful, caring, funny on occasion, fluffy bottomed but enjoy gentle exploration of my world..ie I am not the fittest person in the world but I have never let it stop me from seeing what I want to see. I enjoy conversations with all sorts of people and my favourite thing is to travel by myself so that I can meet more people and be challenged in myself. I will be travelling with my 7 year old son so this will be a new adventure for both of us. PHILOSOPHY That I am getting better each day (usually ok some days are better than others). I am worried about the world state and want to leave it better for my being here. If before I act I think about what is the most loving thing to do in the moment I find I have more courage to do the right thing.
