Wild Fact About Me I love "passing time" with family and friends on the front porch. In the new anthology, Louisiana in Words, I describe at 5:59 AM the sunrise which is so extraordinarily beautiful here in the country.
My Philosophy The power of love, unconditional love, to heal is extraordinary not only for others, but for yourself. That is why I offer a free writing seminar on Writing Yourself Home. The love and healing are there, if you dig deep enough beneath your problems to understand them, and those of others.
What Gives Me Hope People like Dr. Edward Tick at http://www.mentorthesoul.com - people who not only care, but actively work to heal others.
If I were Mayor, I'd make the world a better place by Insist that diplomats are trained in the language, customs, and traditions of the countries where they will work. We cannot communicate unless we understand what someone else is saying that is grounded in their culture. We need, desperately need, to understand the power of words and their nuances.
What/who changed my life and why 84 Charing Cross Road because, ah because it shows that the things that are truly important should not be put off until too late; that we must actively move on our paths daily to fulfill dreams, and not let the "mundance" of everyday life get in their way.
What Bugs Me any form of abuse  
Passions words, words, words  
Inspirations touching nature, my live oaks, my muse  
What Scares Me ignorance, avarice, evil  
  Favorites
Role Models peaceful human beings!, peacemakers (renowned and unknown)  
Quotation "If not now, when?
"If not by me, by whom?"
