I'm just like all of you, searching for meaning, becoming a better person, on this fabulous journey in life and not walking a particular path. My favorite word is Compassion. Some things about me:

I'm a mom to my 4 & 1/2 year old daughter.

I love animals and have always had a special connection with them from a young age. I speak for those that have no voice and will continue doing so as long as I am here.

I'm progressing towards being a vegan after being vegetarian for 22 years.

I don't watch the news because most of it is negative and I just don't want to see it. I'm a very visual person, so I would rather choose from the headlines on the internet to read versus sitting in front of the television.

I love music, I almost always have music playing wherever I am: home, gym, car.

I work at home as a medical transcriptionist.

I have two dogs, 1 cat, 3 fish aquariums and a rat. My daughter says we have a small farm, lol!

I make some fabulous veggie tamales!

I always have my camera with me, love love love capturing the beauty that surrounds us.

I love books of quotes!

I'm studying to be a web designer.

Any cruelty towards animals or children. Much of this world makes me disgusted but I try to find the light and beauty where I can.

People that litter.

Negative people, energy drainers.
