Q.  What is your worst life experience?

A.  My life....has not been simple or easy.... There are many things 
that happened to me, which I suppose I could list here.. 
but in truth I would rather not....
I will leave it at this.....
my worst experience was my childhood....


Q.  What is your strongest sense?

A.  I would think touch is one of mine...not sure if 
it's the strongest really.... but it's the one that 
leaps to mind.


Q.  What do you like best about yourself?

A.  Personally..... I hate questions like this.... 
~chuckle~ I feel like I'm bragging or something.... 
but one of the things I like the most about myself 
is how I treat those around me.... every thing I do... 
I try to do as I would wish done to myself.  I live 
my life treating others how I would want to be treated...
I'm told it makes me a good friend....among other things.


Q.  Tell me about your best friend.

A.  ~Laughs~ my "best friend" for the past 6 years 
is not a human.... she has four legs and a tail.... 
she is my Maltese... Tia... I know.... I'm odd, but 
I never claimed to be normal..
I'm not a person to let others close.... 
most of my life I've been the quiet one in the corner....
seemingly having no need for others company.
In the last year or so....I have changed slightly...
and now have a number of friends......and a few who are 
closer to me then family.... but I'll not put one above 
the others by calling them best........
I'll leave that honor to Tia.....


Q.  What is your most prized possession?

A.  hmm... another question which requires some thought...
~soft laugh~
The first thing that pops to mind would be my Dog...... 
Tia... who's loyalty and antics keep me smiling every day....
She was my savior when I was so depressed a time ago.....
perhaps the reason I am here....
cuz I could not after all...leave my baby alone....~sappy smile~
there  is one other thing..... that I prize above her..... 
but that's too personal... to place on a web page.... ~nods~


Q.  What would you define as the most terrifying moment of   your life?

A.  The most terrifying moment of my life happened quite recently.. 
well...at least the one that is freshest in my mind.  
It was when my Doctor told me that I might possibly have Cancer.
.... nuff said....no?


Q.  If you could go back and relive a year of your life, which year would it be?

A.  That's a toughie!.......... Can I change things?.....
....if so...would be my Grade 12 year..... ~Nods~


Q.  What is your proudest accomplishment?

A.  ~thinks hard~  This is another hard one......
I'm not sure...I don't really see anything I do in life...
as all that special........I'm just me..... nothing thrilling here....
~shrugs~
I guess....... I'm proud...that through all the crap life
has tossed to me......I've managed to not let it make me 
someone i would dislike..
~nuther shrug~


Q.  Do you remember writing your first poem?

A.  mm..... not really......no.....my memory is not all 
that good. ~LOL~
I stopped writing for years...do to........things.  
I do remember clearly the first prose I wrote ... 
that started me creating again


Q.  Whose poetry do you like to read?

A.  I don't really read published poets all that often.
I like reading stuff my friends and people I know write.
I like the emotion and feeling that I get from them.
I like how it enables me to get to know the authors more.


Q.  If you had 3 free hours in the middle of the afternoon, how would you spend them?
	
A.  ~smiling~ this one is easy.....
Walking in a forest somewhere......
in peace and quiet........
with the One who hold's my heart.
