CURRENT MISSION

Live and let live.

ABOUT ME

I am a nice friendly young woman, who loves to travel. I love to spend time with my friends, cook for them, watch movies. I love all animals and I love meeting new people... I may appear shy at first, but once I get to know someone I am very outgoing. One wierd thing to know about me, I am very passionate about things and feelings, for instance, a commercial can make me cry, or laugh hystericaly as if im really part of it. Movies that include wars make me sad, and not for the reason you may think, its because of the horses and other animals that killed because humans couldnt walk their damn selves to the battle field. And in LOTR when the elephants were taken down, I absolutely bawled, i know they were fake elephants but somewhere else in the world elephants were used in wars and they were killed... I know very random to tell people about that but this is a community for sharing, right?? LOL

PHILOSOPHY

I don't suffer from insanity - I enjoy every minute of it.
If you want the rainbow, you'll have to put up with the rain
One of my personal favourite quotes from Washington Irving - “There is a sacredness in tears. They are not the mark of weakness, but of power. They speak more eloquently than ten thousand tongues. They are messengers of overwhelming grief...and unspeakable love.”
Not all those who wander are lost _ JrrTolkein
Stop worrying about the potholes in the road, and star celebrating the journey.
