I make the mundane- fabulous, landing in all kinds of precariously marvelous situations. Unattended, I create all kinds of messy mischief inside my pointy little head! (Nyla 09)..
From childhood's hour
I have not been
As others were;
I have not seen
As others saw;
I could not bring
My passions
from a common spring.
~Edgar Allan Poe~
Music
MUSIC
My musical taste is vast and very dependent on my mood. Music is my muse, is truly one of my biggest PASSIONS and inspirations. It's amazing how music can sooth, excite, seduce, speak for you, transform you....
I enjoy Powerful music with strong lyrics! The more haunting and Passionate, the more I like it! Rock, Celtic, goth, World beat, classical, the haunting violin en-traps my savage soul..
Music is a very powerful Muse! My favorite bands are Enigma and Depeche Mode, I also love Pearl Jam, Nickleback, Green day,3 Doors down, Perfect Circle, H.I.M., Massive Attack, The Cure, Eyrithmics, Stevie Nicks, The kills, Mazzy Star, Dave Mathews, Bauhous, Dramatica, Floater ... to many to name (Also a band I was just introduced to called Stabbing westward!)
I DO NOT listen to 50's 60's or disco, would rather duct tape myself to a semi-truck tire. .. When I was little and most girls were were playing with barbies, I was writing songs and listening to the radio.
Movies
Television
Books
BOOKS
Most of the books I read are on history. Shhhhh... I am secretly a history geek. A couple of my favorites are The Count of Monte Crisco and Ride The Wind. I love the Anne Rice Books,they do well to .. umm... feed my neck fetish! There is a great book I read as a child I will never forget, My Side Of The Mountain, about Sam Gribley running away to live off the land in the Catskills in upper New York. I have always wanted to go there. There are others, but like I said, most all are based on history, they keep my attention.
My FAVORITE Classic Poem:
Heroes
HEROES
The biggest heros in my life are my children. They have been my life and I am thankful for every wild, insane, incredible moment!

Come explore with me:
NINE MILE CANYON, Utah
http://utahoutdoors.com/nine-mile-canyon/
Nine Mile Canyon is an amazing place to go exploring. There is no feeling in the world like sitting at a campfire tucked up in a nook beside the sheer canyon walls and watching the firelight's glow dance against the red rocks. Such an amazing array of shadow and light! The canyon is quiet and almost haunting, there is a feeling I get there that I have had no other place. Like its history envelopes you and absorbs you. History pristine, sitting as it has for 1000's of years, you become a part of the air, the rocks, the smell of the sage. It's like time stops and you are there with all those who were there before you. Every sense is touched by a place so untouched. It is a hard feeling to describe. To look across the canyon and feel beauty stealing your breath away, to know what you see, is the same as a person standing on the same rock a 1000 years ago. Maybe its just me, But it is like they are sharing something with you, It is a gift.
The heart does what it pleases, with careless abandon, no amount of logic can reason with a heart on fire.

"Our lives are like a book. Each day a new page. Some good, some bad. Keep reading. Many chapters will cover and turn over each other as our story unfolds. The secret is to enjoy its telling. Take care however, that your input leaves the best fingerprints behind. Take care in the handling of the pages as we are not alone in them."

Life, It's just a short walk.. and, I have no clue where I am going... I should ponder my destination more, but I get side tracked easily... Cotton candy, Bubbles, Dandelion fluffs and Fireflies.. these things in life need examined closely and should not be overlooked!!

What do I want to do before I die?

Who I am looking for:
Shhhhhhh..... it's a secret!
What do you want to know?
I will tell you if you ask the right question!
*laughing*
I am not looking for anyone yet looking for everyone.
I enjoy meeting People who like to laugh and enjoy this playground we live in! I love people, the world is my library and people are her books!
I am not looking for love or an internet sex partener, Do not message me if that is your intent. I will not answer that type of message.
I enjoy people who write and share their writing. I am a writer, and would love to share some with you as well. For those of you who read my postings I thank you beyond measure! Music is also a 'Huge' passion for me as I have worked in Radio most of my life! I love Photography, Art and Dancing (though I do not see me shaking it on here any time soon *grins* I tried and fell off the keyboard). I enjoy History and traveling to historical places. I love poking around citys and finding their hidden secrets! I am also a back roads kind of girl and love to explore the outdoors and playing at whatever adventure I find around the next corner. Adventures spill around us every day, if you just stop long enough to look and enjoy them, even the ones that last but only a moment! I am a romantic with a unique outlook on the world and for what time I have here, I choose to smile, dance, laugh, and enjoy every moment! ... and so.. the music plays.... can you hear it?........
I am a surprise in my simplicity
complicated in my mystery.
Unbridled in my passion for life.
My grin will make you think twice.
I am the wind that touches the moon
The child in the dandelion fluffs bloom
The haunting bass that pounds through you
whats that you say? .. yes, I am that too!
The rest is still unwritten..........!

You Are The High Priestess
You represent mystery - secrets that are yet to be revealed.
You find yourself sitting between two worlds: one dark, one light.
You tend to hold these two worlds in balance, reconciling the two.
Open and welcoming, you invite others to learn your secrets.
Your fortune:
Something hidden, or latent, in your life is about to come forward.
You need to pay more attention to your dreams, thoughts, intuition, and imagination.
And if that involves tapping into your dark side, it will all balance out in the end.
You have a lot of potential dying to be unleashed, so let those gates open!
Have a Wonderful Thanksgiving Nyla.. I hope you have the best Thanksgiving ever!! Have some fun for me, I have to work...but it's overtime.. :) Thinking of you!!!
Who you are is this "motion of seeing" that is looking through your eyes right now. When you stop at and as this "motion of aliveness" - by consciously refocusing your attention to this seer; by coming to being deeply at rest at and as this one that is the "you" that you can never get away from; by no longer furthering out from this "you" and into the attempt to try and be something that is not you; you are immediately freed from who you think you are in every given moment of this realization.
As you learn to leave alone the activity of unconsciously trying to be the mindbody that you think that you are - the mindbody that this "you" is currently flowing through - and you learn to move as this one that you truly are - this "you" of you; the very heart of existence - steadily, consciously and momentarily, the continuity of the ever deepening of this innermost as it keeps on entering its manifestation, through this mindbody that you find yourself flowing through, allows you to simply bubble in the sheer joy, pleasure, peace, delightfulness and stillness that this "you" of you is.
"I only need one wish and one kiss,
they will both last forever."
The heart does what it pleases, with careless abandon, no amount of logic can reason with a heart on fire.
