****Four Star Charity**** "Founded in 1985 and now over 190,000 strong, HFA has gained national recognition and respect through its hard work and its highly-visible, highly-successful campaigns. HFA's goals are to protect farm animals from cruelty, to protect the public from the dangerous misuse of antibiotics, hormones, and other chemicals used on factory farms, and to protect the environment from the impacts of industrialized animal factories. HFA's comprehensive programs include:
anti-cruelty investigations and exposes, national media and ad campaigns, direct hands-on emergency care and refuge for abused farm animals."
"The worst sin toward our fellow creatures is not to hate them, but to be indifferent to them: that's the essence of inhumanity."
~ George Bernard Shaw
I used to perform hand puppet shows with my solo traveling puppet theatre. I wrote and portrayed original plays dramatizing social issues or events that are relevant to children (and most adults as well); such as: dealing with loss, death, racism, bullying, and prejudice; learning about nutrition and health; understanding alternative lifestyles; honoring physical boundaries and self-respect; and celebrating local native history and various holidays.

I want to learn to play the guitar and hand drums. I'd hate to die without knowing how to competently play a musical instrument. If I don't manage to master at least something musical, I won't feel like I've truly lived - but that also applies to skateboarding and surfing, for which I believe I've missed the boat.

Books
Graphic Novels and Comics including one favorite:
Tarot: Witch of the Black Rose (Jim Balent & Holly Golightly) This is one of Holly's Pretty Chibis which I ADORE (used by permission, of course!)
The Annotated MANTOOTH TPB by Matt Fraction, Andy Kuhn and Tim Fisher. It's freakin' hilarious! Highly recommended :D
Roman Dirge's Lenore is cute, crazed, and deid-ly - I can't help myself, "I love that woman!"
“I'm so tired I can't even think straight. I need a shower and coffee. Possibly a shower OF coffee.”
~Andy Diggle, comic book writer
More to come later on all the artists and writers of all comics I'm currently reading! Must mention that Yoshitaka Amano, Neil Gaiman, David Mack, Frank Miller, Gail Simone, Ben Templesmith, and Scott Wegener are favorite creators. The gorgeous Pride of Baghdad, hc graphic novel by Brian K. Vaughn and Niko Henrichon - had me sobbing. I love Dr.Suess, and Schultz's PEANUTS.
Apparently, I identified with Charlie Brown from a very young age - as this early Halloween photie of me in my "You Can Do It, Charlie Brown" sweatshirt assessing all my loot shows - waaaaay back when one could still safely accept fresh, unwrapped fruit whilst trick o' treatin' and searching for the Great Pumpkin:
Please check out my blog to see the books I purchase every week.
I own a substantial library of resource books, classic and modern fiction, poetry, collectibles and bargain finds. I've had to learn to restrain myself to save space, and buy only what I can read in a lifetime! I am a somewhat controlled bibliophile and I prefer finely made and clearly printed hardcovers, whether graphic novels or otherwise. Here's a list of what I'm reading currently: (I read several books at once depending on my mood)
1.
2.
The Companions by Sheri S. Tepper is a wonderful read - I highly recommend it to anyone who enjoys sci-fi, dogs, and preserving life.
The Empty Tank by Jeremy Leggett should be required reading for every U.S. citizen.
Paris in Mind - an anthology edited by Jennifer Lee featuring essays about Paris by historical and contemporary American authors is a fave.
The Story of Caliph Stork by Henry Justice Ford from The Little Green Fairy Book
I collect intriguing children's books as well and have quite a few artfully illustrated, HC picture books. I finally found a HC copy of What the Witch Left, by Ruth Grew. ^_^ I still want to read The Dead Emcee Scrolls by Saul Williams.
I enjoy Chelsea Quinn Yarbro's Saint-Germain novels. The Fig Eater by Jody Shields was an intriguing read. Long-time favorite authors/poets whose work I keep re-reading include: Jane Austen, Honore de Balzac, Iain Banks, Henry Beston, Wendell Berry, Paul Bowles, Robert Burns, Albert Camus, Rachel Carson, Charles Dickens, Arthur Conan Doyle, Marguerite Duras, Robert Frost, Ernest Hemingway, Aldous Huxley, John Le Carre, C.S. Lewis, H. P. Lovecraft, Anais Nin, Larry Niven, Edgar Allan Poe, Anne Radcliffe, Robert Louis Stevenson, Henry David Thoreau, J.R.R. Tolkien, Marguerite Yourcenar, Walt Whitman, William Carlos Williams, and yeah, no kiddin, Shakespeare.
Particular books...Time Probe: The Sciences in Science Fiction, a sci-fi anthology collected by Arthur C. Clarke is an out-of-print favorite. A few other faves include two fascinating histories by Mark Kurlansky-Salt: A World History; and, Cod; and Ahab's Wife Or, The Star-gazer by Sena Jeter Naslund.

"Nothing contributes so much to tranquilize the mind as a steady purpose - a point on which the soul may fix its intellectual eye."
~ Mary Wollstonecraft Shelley
Poetry is meant to be read aloud.
"A poet is a nightingale, who sits in darkness and sings to cheer its own solitude with sweet sounds."
~ Percy Bysshe Shelley
Robert Frost said:
"A poem begins in delight and ends in wisdom."
"Poetry is when an emotion has found its thought and the thought has found words."
"To be a poet is a condition, not a profession."
I'm a girl with guts and allergies
a squirrel hiding among the trees
may be nuts
at least I'm free
don't shirk my responsibility
to me
to reality
to life's magickal mysteries
both light and shadow
through shimmering leaves
may be a dichotomy
mutable and deep
as unseen currents beneath the surface of the sea
yet I refuse to falter before the brink
I savor the experience of
my spirit's long
ardent
drink
My first tattoo is on my left hip as pictured above. It consists of a primitive woodblock orobouros encircling a Great Egret created from a James Audubon drawing, perched upon a laurel branch, and surrounded by two opposing Inuit-style salmon and a scallop shell. The space inside the orobouros, surrounding the other figures, is swirled with purple, green, and blue like the inner surface of an abalone shell.
Orobouros: rebirth; regeneration; the eternal circle of life; snake - my Chinese birth sign
Egret/crane/ibis: Thoth, Egyptian god of wisdom, messenger of the gods, patron deity of scribes and writing; vigilance; justice; diligence; poets & Apollo; Kali's bird
Laurel: evergreen symbol of eternity; immortality; victory and triumph; tree of Apollo, Greek god of poetry, patron of the Oracle at Delphi
Scallop Shell: mystic symbol of regeneration; hope and resurrection; spiritual renewal
Salmon: wisdom; knowledge; instinct; determination; persistence; inspiration; rejuvenation; symbolize the two fish of Pisces
I'd like to get another tattoo on my back composed of art nouveau/fantasy stylized patterns and dragonflies, much like the one reached by the link to Steve-A in my Who I'd Like To Meet section. I might somehow add eyes of Horus, a Blue Nile lily/lotus (Nymphaea-caerulea), a Maat feather, owl, and/or a Cecropia Moth.
One of the most tiresome and frustrating things in the world is being insincere or trying to communicate with someone who is insincere.
I admire honesty; intelligence paired with wisdom; being motivated, thoughtful, logical, considerate, compassionate, resilient, creative, healthy, careful, meticulous, and intense - and being able to enjoy it!
"People living deeply have no fear of death." ~ Anaïs Nin
"The most important thing I learned ... was that when a person dies he only appears to die. He is still very much alive in the past, so it is very silly for people to cry at his funeral. All moments, past, present, and future, always have existed, always will exist." ~ Kurt Vonnegut
"Once confined to fantasy and science fiction, time travel is now simply an engineering problem." ~ MICHIO KAKU, Wired Magazine, Aug. 2003
One of my photographs from Père Lachaise Cemetery
Paris, France...
"...Jean always said you can take the body, burn the body, but the spirit... you devils! the spirit... you criminals! the spirit... you assassins! lives on in our minds." ~ Peasant Leader prior to pouring the assassinated Jean Dominique's ashes into a farming community's river in Haiti
"Although the world is full of suffering, it is also full of the overcoming of it."
~ Helen Keller
"Knowing love, I will allow all things to come and go. To be as supple as the wind, and take everything that comes with great courage. Life is right in any case. My heart is as open as the sky."
~ Maya in Kama Sutra: A Tale of Love by Mira Nair, 1997

Sometimes I paint watercolors and draw a wee bit. Here're couple examples of my work...more in My Pics...
"Give us grace and strength to forbear and to persevere. Give us courage and gaiety and the quiet mind, spare to us our friends, soften to us our enemies."
~ Robert Louis Stevenson
“Prejudice is a great time saver. You can form opinions without having to get the facts."
~ E.B. White
“Few people are capable of expressing with equanimity opinions which differ from the prejudices of their social environment. Most people are even incapable of forming such opinions."
~ Albert Einstein
“I have come to believe over and over again that what is most important to me must be spoken, made verbal and shared, even at the risk of having it bruised or misunderstood.”
"It is not only what we do, but also what we do not do, for which we are accountable."
~ Molière
"I am only one, but still I am one. I cannot do everything, but still I can do something; and because I cannot do everything, I will not refuse to do something that I can do."

My Adobe digi Bloudewedd doodle
Beltane 2007
I have a special affinity for:
...dragonflies...
skulls...
...fairies; rocks; gemstones; geology; Feng Shui by real Feng Shui masters; handmade goods and textiles; Scotland, Norway, Denmark; Oran, Algiers; Eastern objects and art; herons, cranes, and egrets;
wind; autumn; winter; snow...
I want to continue to discover and be introduced to new places, to experience many cultures; and yet, I crave keeping home and staying put. I enjoy learning and speaking foreign languages; researching; analyzing; debating; withdrawing; socializing; learning; thinking; learning more....
AND general goofing around!
I'm interested in all aspects of spirituality...(see Maat in Heroes section below)...
I like to play solitaire, Monopoly, cribbage; complete jig saw puzzles; and read tarot cards from The Mythic Tarot deck By Juliet Sharman-Burke & Liz Greene & Tricia Newell. It's uncanny and amazing how accurate and intuitive that particular deck and the accompanying guide can be. The Empress card from that set...
I am the Hanged Man
Self-sacrifice, Sacrifice, Devotion, Bound.
With the Hanged man there is often a sense of fatalism, waiting for something to happen. Or a fear of
loss from a situation, rather than gain.
The Hanged Man is perhaps the most fascinating card in the deck. It reflects the story of Odin who offered himself as a sacrifice in order to gain knowledge. Hanging from the world tree, wounded by a spear, given no bread or mead, he hung for nine days. On the last day, he saw on the ground runes that had fallen from the tree, understood their meaning, and, coming down, scooped them up for his own. All knowledge is to be found in these runes.
The Hanged Man, in similar fashion, is a card about suspension, not life or death. It signifies selflessness, sacrifice and prophecy. I make myself vulnerable and in doing so, gain illumination. I see the world differently, with almost mystical insights.
Courage, strength, fortitude. Power not arrested in the act of judgement, but passing on to further action, sometimes obstinacy.
This is a card of courage and energy. It represents both the Lion's hot, roaring energy, and the Maiden's steadfast will. The innocent Maiden is unafraid, undaunted, and indomitable. In some cards she opens the lion's mouth, in others she shuts it. Either way, she proves that inner strength is more powerful than raw physical strength. That forces can be controlled and used to score a victory is very close to the message of the Chariot, which might be why, in some decks, it is Justice that is card 8 instead of Strength. With strength I can control not only the situation, but myself. It is a card about anger and impulse management, about creative answers, leadership and maintaining one's personal honor. It can also stand for a steadfast friend.
