My name is Julie Phineas and I am a work at home mom of 2 living with in Southern California. I'm an open-minded woman with an inner desire to make the world a better place. I love to play with my children, listen to music, read, think, and expand my pool of knowledge. Most of my time is devoted to my family and home, plus I maintain a few blogs on Blogger and write articles for Lesbiatopia.com and Olivia.com as well. I also spend a lot of time connecting with my friends on MySpace and other social networking sites online. I hope you enjoy yourself as you look around my page. :o)
I’m a free thinker and always try to keep an open mind to what’s going on in my life ~ I live my life creatively . I am divorced from my children’s father and am now in a committed lesbian relationship with my wife, Gina. The children are two years apart and share the same birthday – the 4th of July – and I do my best to be a firm but fair modern mother. Plus we have many extended family members and friends, including friends online around the world. When I’m running around the house on the daily I like to throw my hair up and put on a good pair of jeans, but I love a good reason to get dressed up too. It can be hard to get our little family of four together in one place sometimes, but when I do I love to cook hearty meals for us and any company. Exercising, having fun, laughing and enjoying life are also high priorities for me once I get the dishes done. Gina and I try to stay connected through it all and at times it can be tough. Through it all we are committed to each other and our relationship plus keeping our family going strong.
My childhood was very dysfunctional, and I’ve had to learn a lot of lessons in my life - some the easy way and many more the hard way. I know that life is a work in progress, and I’ve made the commitment to explore the good things that life has to offer. Because of a chronic illness, I do what I can to prevent negativity and lead a healthy life because I know that stress is the enemy. I take a holistic approach to my health and wellness, and do my best to stay centered and grounded. Through the tough times my spirituality has grown more profound; and my personal research has led me to ideas that shed light on the whole illusion of life. The book “The Disappearance of The Universe” by Gary Renard changed my life tremendously! The book is an introduction to “A Course in Miracles” which is a book published by the Foundation for Inner Peace. I've met alot of people online who read ACIM as well.
When I'm not taking care of the kids, cleaning the house, connecting with my wife, working on my blogs, or working on making my mind right and my body well, I also try to raise awareness for causes that make life better for others.
The issues that I am actively trying to build awareness for are Global Warming, Social Equality & Civil Rights, Same Sex Marriage, Women’s Issues, Children’s Issues, Literacy & Education, Food Safety, Health Care Reform, Consumer Rights & Corporate Responsibility, Human Trafficking, Genocide Awareness, Truth in Media, Prison Reform, Medical Marijuana, Wildlife Preservation, and Internet Safety.
