Wild Fact About Me
My Philosophy Walk Softly But Carry a Big Stick, which means to me to be gentle and kind as much as it is possible to be, but at the same time to be strong and not accept tyrrany or abuse be it mental, emotional, physical, political or spiritual
Also to think for yourself and live your own truth, follow the guidance of your own heart and not blindly accept anything as truth or good or right just because someone else says it's so, God or whatever you call your higher power will always speak to you through your heart and will always guide you to feel what is good and right and true
What Gives Me Hope The basic goodness inherent in all people
If I were Mayor, I'd make the world a better place by Get the money and corruption out of government, stop all wars, make preservation of our environment, great waters and wildlife a top priority along with ending hunger and ensuring the highest quality of education and healthcare for all
What/who changed my life and why The gift of having my children has had the greatest impact, but as for movies "The Razors Edge" with Tyrone Power, Clifton Webb and Gene Tierney because it mirrored something in my own psyche about materialism not being a goal, but that spirituality, kindness and service of some kind was the better goal and way of life.
What Bugs Me Apathy / Indifference, destruction of wildlife habitats, destruction of our environment, corporate greed, corrupt politicians, hunting for sport, rapists and murderers, Injustice to any form of Life, Drunk Drivers, People whom do harm unto others, People on cellpho  
Passions love, laughter, herbal and holistic medicine, pets animals wildlife, compassion for all living things, freedom to be myself, family and friends and loved ones, classic films of the 20's 30's 40's, Cooking and delicious food, preserving all species - not just human  
Inspirations my family, nature, kittens purring, to fulfill my purpose on earth, Well lived lives, the sun going down - twilight, the sound of the ocean, the beauty of nature, music, love, listening to gentle rain, Kindness in any form, good people, friends, Cloudless Nights, beauti  
What Scares Me destruction of our planet, religious fanatics, religious extremism, violent and abusive people, war cruelty greed, apathy ignorance indifference, corrupt politicians, Ignorance and evil, death, "Big Brother"  
  Favorites
Role Models The Dalai Lama, Lao Tzu, Sir Richard Burton the author, St. Francis of Assisi, T. E. Lawrence, Buddha, Mahatma Gandhi, Joseph Campbell, Elizabeth Queen of England, Elizabeth Warren, Kwan Yin, Jane Goodall, John Lennon, Mother Teresa  
Quotation There is no need for temples, no need for complicated philosophies. My heart and my brain are my temples, my religion is very simple, my religion is kindness.

Everything has it's beauty, but not everyone sees it.

All that is needed for evil to prosper is that good people do nothing.
