Either you think - or else others have to think for you and take power from you, pervert and discipline your natural tastes, civilize and sterilize you.

Neither a lofty degree of intelligence nor imagination
nor both together go to the making of genius.
Love, love, love, that is the soul of genius.
--Mozart
They say that God is everywhere, and yet we always think of
Him as somewhat of a recluse.
--Emily Dickinson, poet (1830-1886)
Asking an artist to talk about his work is like asking a plant
to discuss horticulture.
--Jean Cocteau

What Your Soul Really Looks Like
You are quite expressive and thoughtful. You see the world in a way that others are blind to.
You are a grounded person, but you also leave room for imagination and dreams. You feet may be on the ground, but you're head is in the clouds.
You believe that people see you for how you are, not how you look. But deep down, you know that's not exactly true.
Your near future is calm, relaxing, and pretty much what you want. And it's something you've been anticipating for a while now.
For you, love is all about caring and comfort. You couldn't fall in love with someone you didn't trust.
Normal enough to know that you're unique...
But too damn unique to do anything about it!
You Are Teal Green
You are a one of a kind, original person. There's no one even close to being like you.
Expressive and creative, you have a knack for making the impossible possible.
While you are a bit offbeat, you don't scare people away with your quirks.
Your warm personality nicely counteracts and strange habits you may have.
You have a rare combinations of talents: an ear for music, nimble fingers, and the willpower to practice.
You could master almost any instrument you choose to play (if you haven't already!)
You are so open minded that your brain may have fallen out!
Well, not really. But you see both sides of an issue.
You don't have a judgemental bone in your body, and you're very accepting.
You enjoy the best of every life philosophy, even if you sometimes contradict yourself.
Hey you guys...there is a long list! I'm gettin to it! But I love: Anything from the 30's 40's & 50's and pop films from the 60's. I like things that are layered, deep and make you think. Oh and I like anything funny. I also like sentemental pieces. Anything that depicts life from the 1950's and before or from the 50's and before! Some of the directors and actors include but are not limited to: (sadly anything Jane Austin..yes really!), Tim Burton, John Cusack, John Candy, Val Kilmer, Mel brooks, John Waters, Johnny Depp, Marilyn Monroe, Angelina Jolie, James Dean, Audrey Hepburn, Kathryn Hepburn, Spencer Tracy, Clark Gable, Kate Beckensdale...I'm adding more movies, directors & actors soon...till then check out how my love test came out...what is your love style?
Your Five Variable Love Profile

In general, you prefer to have only one love interest.
But untill your twin flame or soul mate comes into your life you are willing to play the field!
There's too much eye candy to keep you from wandering if there is not a soul bond.
Experience Level:
Your experience level is high.
You've loved, lost, and loved again.
You have had a wide range of love experiences.
And when the real thing comes along, you know it!
Dominance:
Your dominance is low.
This doesn't mean you're a doormat, just balanced.
You know a relationship is not about getting your way.
And you love to give your sweetie a lot of freedom.
Cynicism:
Your cynicism is low.
You are an eternal optimist when it comes to love and romance.
No matter how many times you've been hurt - you're never bitter.
You believe in one true love, your perfect soulmate.
And if you haven't found true love yet, you know you will soon.
Independence:
Your independence is high.
You don't need to be in love, and sometimes you don't even want love.
Having your own life is very important for you...
Even more important than having a relationship.
Television is chewing gum for the eyes.
--Frank Lloyd Wright
When I can...anything funny or witty...or just goofy...also AMC & the Classic Movie Channel.
Gilmore Girls, That 70's Show, Lexx, No Reservations, Dead Famous, Exit 57, The Young Ones, SCTV, Mystery Science Theater 3000, Sitcoms from the 50's, 60's & 70's...!
Of all the shades of blue, you are the most funky, unique, and independent.
Expressing yourself and taking a leap of faith has always been easy for you.
I am an avid reader..and no I'm not talking about the film editing machine either *grin*!
Favorites are: W.B. Yeats, Robert Frost, F. Scott Fitzgerald, Jack Kerouac, Hunter S. Thompson, The Velveteen Rabbit, The Little Prince, Byron, Henry Wadsworth Longfellow, Ralph Waldo Emerson, Shakespeare,
Lots of new things. Anything with passion or kookie, or warped...or that will make you think. Anything relating to my ancestery or places related to it...places that I have been...and places that I am going. Anything motivational....anything inspirational...anything with passion.
Oh and I love to read! Non-fiction, fiction...whatever I love it! I have a huge library and part of that consists of books that I am working on reading...because you know that when you go to the bookstore and you see a book once...you may never see that book again...so like with people that interest you I feel it's always best to pick it up at the time...least you never cross paths again...the same may be said for people *smile*!
Either you think - or else others have to think for you and take power from you, pervert and discipline your natural tastes, civilize and sterilize you.
--F. Scott Fitzgerald
I am always doing things I can't do, that's how I get to do them.
--Pablo Picasso
To laugh often and much; to win the respect of intelligent people and the affection of children...to leave the world a better place ...to know even one life has breathed easier because you have lived.
This is to have succeeded.
--Ralph Waldo Emerson
We know what we are, but know not what we may
become
- William Shakespeare
You Are Rain
You can be warm and sexy. Or cold and unwelcoming.
Either way, you slowly bring out the beauty around you.
We are all amazing people we all are frightened of something or things, we all have stories and things that color how we see the world and others and words of others...I know that I want connection rather than separation I want genuine rather than facade. I want to be and love and accept. My favorite saying is s'agapo which means "I love your soul". Our souls are all shining beautiful things and we all have fears it's only human.
I have that fear of my art in any form not showing up as I want it to...but hey that just shows how much I care about it and want it to translate well!!!
Here is to friends and living life in any way that you choose!!!! Viva La Difference!
On with the show...
"If you have made mistakes...there is always another chance for you...you may have a fresh start any moment you choose, for this thing we call "failure" is not the falling down, but the staying down."
- Mary Pickford
“I decided, very early on, just to accept life unconditionally; I never expected it to do anything special for me, yet I seemed to accomplish far more than I had ever hoped. Most of the time it just happened to me without my ever seeking it.”
-- Audrey Hepburn

I Am .. Which tarot card are you?
Spiritual enlightenment, inner illumination, hidden power. Link between seen and unseen. Balance of positive and negative forces. Receptivity. Unseen guidance.
A young woman sits on a throne holding a scroll labeled "Tora" meaning "law." On her breast is the sign of the meeting of heaven and earth, the Maltese cross. Her crown is the full orb supported by horns, the crown ofthe Mother Goddess Isis, who rules all things changeable, shown by the moon at her feet. Her power, upon which her throne rests, derives from the creative principle of duality, shown by the two pillars of light and darkness. To those who know and love her she dispenses the sweet fruit of the world itself, symbolized by the pomegranites.
Who I'd like to meet: I'd like to meet: people that are creative, thinkers, inventive, evolving, full of love, a little wounded, philosophers, dreamers, movers and shakers, those that make their dreams reality, and those that dream! Any combination of the above and you are A-OK with me ;P
