READ THE BLOG ENTITLED (i.e. click the link) Fear: Into the World of Domestic Abuse For some insight on this disheartening phenomenon if you're an outsider looking in OR if you're on the inside hoping to get out.
We are limitless. In truth we are Wife and we are Mother. We are Lover, Daughter, Warrior, Teacher, Sister, Healer, each one at a time and in essence all of these all the time to lesser and greater degrees.
The Buddha taught lay people the virtue of making the "seven offerings that cost nothing": . . . a compassionate eye, a smiling face, loving words, physical service, a warm heart, a seat, and lodging.

The Notebook -
Every person should watch this movie, then watch it again - learn from it and strive for a love like that of Allie and Noah.
Be merciful and gracious
Be slow to anger
Abound in steadfast love and faithfulness
Keep steadfast love for thousands
Forgive iniquity and transgression and sin
Televizyon
Look past the surface of people and help them be the best person they can be and find contentment with who they truly are.

My mother - For giving me life, putting up with me in life and for making my life better.
Those who chose to live their lives and not let their lives live for them
OGP - for listening, learning, advising and challenging.

The One - who will truly love me in spite of and because of my crazy head
I shall pass through this life but once.
Any good, therefore, that I can do
Or any kindness I can show to any fellow creature,
Let me do it now.
Let me not deter or neglect it,
For I shall not pass this way again.

I'm a writer (Gatlianne.com )
I think age is, quite literally, just a number
Time moves differently when you're with me
I like to dance in the rain and play in puddles
I'm in love with the moon
I love yoga
I think Wal-Mart is an adult's playground
I think Propel Bottles are adult sippy cups
I want to try everything I can
I think life is meant to be LIVED
I believe in being fearless
I dress like Carrie Bradshaw gone free-lovin hippie
I believe in myself
I have faith in others
I think all things can be done with love
I talk to myself alot
I dance through the grocery store
I love Audrey Hepburn
I believe that at some point who you are becomes a choice
I like to color
Bacon is one of my most favorite things on the planet
I believe one's spiritual path is their own and is between them and their God

You are what your deepest desire is.
As your desire is, so is your intention.
As your intention is, so is your will.
As your will is, so is your deed.
As your deed is, so is your destiny."
~ Upanishads
I ONLY USE MY POWERS FOR GOOD
"We are not so far advanced yet that we can explain all these things, but deep down, the deepest level of the pattern is that God is everything. So it's not that God created the world but that God became the world."
Zalman Schachter-Shalomi, in his book Wrapped In A Holy Flame
I'm from the planet of Unique which is through the Free Thinking portal of the Enigmatic Galaxy that joins borders with the Realms Knowledge and Mindfulness.

“Come to the edge.”
“We can't. We're afraid.”
“Come to the edge.”
“We can't. We will fall!”
“Come to the edge.”
And they came.
And he pushed them.
And they flew.
Guillaume Apollinaire, 1880-1918

BOOKS
"Books are the quietest and most constant of friends; they are the most accessible and wisest of counselors, and the most patient of teachers."
-- Charles W. Eliot (1834 - 1926)
~ "I saw an act of Faith today -
a man was on his knees;
Not in a pew or in a church,
but in a garden planting seeds."

Art is not a handicraft, it is the transmission of feeling the artist has experienced.
Everyone thinks of changing the world, but no one thinks of changing himself.
Faith is the sense of life, that sense by virtue of which man does not destroy himself, but continues to live on. It is the force whereby we live.
Love is life. All, everything that I understand, I understand only because I love. Everything is, everything exists, only because I love. Everything is united by it alone. Love is God, and to die means that I, a particle of love, shall return to the general and eternal source.
Hey there beautiful..back @ u! :) here is a new video I just uploaded if ya wanna check it out?! It's about a vision I had this morning....it's for everyone.. so I thought u might wanna here?!....
While it is true that most stay in the cacoon stage, in a static stage, afaid of everything, some venture out as catapillars. Roaming here and there, exploring the world. Yet one day two catapillers were walking long a branch when a butterfly flew by. "You couldnt get me up in one of those things for a million dollars", said the catapillar to his friend. "Yeah, thats for sure" his friend replied. The catapillars continued on moving in the horizontal, afraid what it would take to move in the vertical, to move in Faith alone. Not knowing exactly where they would be heading to next. It takes a quantum leap of Faith to become a butterfly. but the life of a butterfly is the best one of all. It is a life of total freedom.
