I may not have a degree or be well traveled, YET, but that does not mean I am any less interesting. I am comfortable in my own company. I love the outdoors and have sun-kissed skin. I have scars, (bumps, bruises, cuts & burns) from all the activities of "domestic" life and motherhood that have held me captive for many decades. They are badges of courage. I've always loved new things, places and people. I have been knocked down both figuratively and literally but always manage to get back up. I am low maintenance and can carry my own weight,though I now know when to surrender to circumstances and let others carry me. I have experienced misfortune, tragedy and hardship but also have a plethora of funny stories to share. I have life experience I couldn't get in school. I am insightful and creative. I have learned how to recognize opportunity and avail myself to it. I have always readily given, now I am learning how to graciously receive. I am learning how to be beautiful in my own skin and accept who I am. I am often stepping out of my comfort zone and learning how to be comfortable doing so. I am intelligent and resourceful. I am happily married but also forging my own path. I am passionate, friendly, resilient and refuse to let fear rule me. I've learned letting go of anger and grudges lightens your load and forgiving is more for you than other person. Once you learn and recognize this, life is freeing beyond imagination. I can say no without guilt, go in public without makeup, spend an entire day practicing yoga, reading and spontaneously breaking into dance. You never know what is around the next corner, who you will meet but you can choose how you affect the people who currently surround you and the next person you come in contact with. So be kind, smile and even if the person or situation seems impossible, be kind, smile.
