As an irrigator guides water to his fields, as an archer aims an arrow, as a carpenter carves wood, the wise shape their lives. --Buddha
There is more hunger for love and appreciation in this world than for bread. --Mother Teresa
Hello! I'm a widow living in rural NC that has a passon for helping animals, especially feral cats, which I've worked with for 15 years or so when my late husband and I lived in Greensboro, NC. My furbabies now are all direct sons of our 1st feral, Penny, or her grandsons. I grew up surrounded by animals, mainly horses and cats. My animals have given so much to me, it seems only fair that I do what I can for the welfare of their cousins, whether domestic or wild! My years of being "owned by" parrots has given me an appreciation of the Rain Forest destruction, which is a problem I feel very strongly about, as well.
A "career student"? I LOVE learning, so I have taken and am continuing to take Continuing Education courses at our local Community College, and Bible-related courses thru our church. If knowledge is power, I want to be "SuperWoman"!!!
The first peace, which is the most important, is that which comes within the souls of people when they realize their relationship, their oneness with the universe and all its powers, and when they realize that at the center of the universe dwells the Great Spirit, and that this center is really everywhere, it is within each of us.
