Life isn’t about finding yourself. Life is about creating
yourself.” ~ George
Bernard Shaw
The day I was born, my destiny has been mapped out from the beginning in a direction I’ve found to be true in my later years. The little voice was always unfolding my true self but it’s taking many years to really listen. There have been many avenues in my life of opportunities to grow and create myself, turning my life into an inspiring and exhilarating adventure.
I have memories of tagging along in the back
seat listening to my Mom and Aunt tittle-tattle about the family while road
tripping to visit a friend many states away. I discovered at a young age the
wonderment of nature as I stood in the middle of the trees with my Dad
searching for the perfect delectable mushroom. Traveling and nature are part of
my DNA.
When arriving on my calendar today, I notice
each month of 2015 filled with exploring new opportunities in a variety of states
across the county. I am excited about taking
these favorable moments, wandering through these down the road.
My inspiration is to openly and willingly
explore where this adventure takes me, discovering nature and reaching out to
listen to people (and myself) along the way.

across my home state of Missouri to Kansas City to take part in a healing
retreat while sharing a hiking trail with a dear friend. (April)

Illinois, I will be at the Christian Women’s Conference at Lincoln
Christian University sharing the experience with a delightful and

very fortunate to have the opportunity to teach an Indian Head Massage
Workshop at Crystal Mountain Massage Therapy School in Albuquerque, New
Mexico. During my road trip, I will be checking off my bucket list with a
stop to see Bishop Jakes at The Potter House in Dallas, Texas to envelope
some inspiration. (August)
