�Whatever you can do or dream you can�begin it. Boldness has genius, power and magic in it.�

I�m a psychotherapist who has taught at the university level. Work part time at two homeless shelters with 1-5 years old. They're interested, smart, funny and loving. They don't know they're homeless. They think they are just kids. There is very little really, that I can do for them, but love them. Being with them is immediate, present focused and real, loving them is almost instant, and inevitable.

To me life is church. I relate to strangers in an open, trusting and spontaneous way. When the moon seems special (which is fairly often to me) sometimes I turn down my car window at a light and ask a stranger if he or she has noticed the moon.

My spirituality and life practice is best described by Aung San Suu Kyi, winner of the Nobel Prize for peace in �91 for leading the people of Burma to revolt against the military government. "Non violence is behaving towards self and others in non humiliating ways.�

Have a dry sense of humor and value laughing very much; crying too. Am warm, loving, loveable, creative, a free spirit, generous, and so on. Also like being intense and serious. Have never been accused of being 'normal'. Have a strong sense of integrity and practice looking deeply into the true nature of things.

I�ve traveled quite a bit; love to hike, walk and exercise. Began as a country girl; upstate New York. While I think I could live almost anywhere, and have very few actual needs, I thrive in nature.

Currently I am doing a particular type of yoga called Bikram Yoga. It is done in 105* for 1 1/2 hours. I do it 5 - 6 times a week. I�m almost always the oldest in the class but participate with no difficulty. Don't mind being different as long as I am true to myself.

�You�ve got to dance like nobody�s watching,
Sing like nobody�s listening,
Love like it�s never going to hurt.
Work like you don�t need the money and
Live like it�s Heaven on Earth"
