Wild Fact About Me First woman deacon in New Zealand Anglican Church - 1971
My Philosophy At some thoughts one stands perplexed, above all at the sight of human sin, and wonders whether to combat it by force or by humble love. Always decide 'I will combat it by humble love.' If you resolve on that once for all, you can conquer the whole world. Loving humility is a terrible force: it is the strongest of all things, and there is nothing else like it. -Starets [Elder] Zosima, from The Brothers Karamazov by Fyodor Dostoevsky
What Gives Me Hope Love still lives, and shows in every human being, often without their knowing it.
If I were Mayor, I'd make the world a better place by Resigning! I would be lousy at any of these jobs.
What/who changed my life and why The Cloud of Unknowing - which brought me back to something I had learned when I was eight..
What Bugs Me The destruction of rural areas, people who WON'T use their minds!, people who don't "listen", intolerance, injustice, cruelty, bullying, BEING IGNORED!, abusive people  
Passions trees, reading, spirituality, peace, nature, my family, music, MY CHILDREN!!!  
Inspirations ocean, Birds chirping, courage, People waking and seeing their own light, understanding, good people  
What Scares Me apathy, Violent people, War - Cruelty - Greed - Indifference, Religious Extremism, my son being hurt, abusers, "Big Brother"  
  Favorites
Role Models Jesus Christ, grandmother, buddha, Mahatma Gandhi  
Quotation The unloving belong only to themselves,
But the loving belong to others to their very bones.

May the road rise to meet you
May the wind be always at your back
The sun shine warm upon your face
The rains fall soft upon your fields
And until we meet again,
May God hold you in the hollow of his hand.

Happy St. Patrick's Day ! ~  Alice
