ABOUT ME

That I am philosophical; that I am honest, have integrity. They would say I am creative and artistic; have a beautiful home, dress well; have a lovely garden. They would say that I can write well, am well educated, down to earth, well organized.

Interests

Plants really grab my attention. I love looking at plants, planning gardens and designing beautiful environments. I like to read spiritual and philosophical books; find Diamond Heart engaging; like English costume dramas such as Downton Abbey and The Forsythe Saga. I enjoy reading gardening magazines and traveling.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Taking the boat from Thera to the volcano on the island of Santorini I had the realization that I had always lived...that I had no beginning and no end. The universe cracked open and I felt one with God. It was amazing...the silence and depth that was me. Another was the first time I entered a really beautiful cathedral in Europe. I had never been religious and had been an agnostic most of my life; but when I walked into a Gothic cathedral, I finally got it - or rather, it "got" me. My last example would probably be the first time I held my Nikon camera. I felt so grateful and as if my life would never be the same again.
