| Introduction | I am a spiritual being. I am also an artist. I sing, write, act. I teach and listen, and listen and teach. I am mother, lover, sister, friend. I am a fiery, loving, independent, deeply feeling, sensual and passionate woman. At moments I can be shy or reserved, and others, silly. I love to be happy, to laugh, to share, to learn, to know. I enjoy spending time in nature and in meditative type pursuits. I love to read, and enjoy listening to music and I play piano. I love computers, and learning. I am very curious and eager to understand the whys and hows of things and people. I am a loyal and compassionate woman, intense, dramatic, multi-talented, spiritual, intelligent. I value friendships of quality and depth. I love life and living. I am always looking forward to making new global friendships. Because I consider myself a citizen of the world, I don't take friendship lightly. And there are no national or international borders around my heart. |

Your people want to make a statue in your honor. What will it be made out of and what victory will it commemorate?
It will be made of clay -- from Mama Earth's body -- and it will celebrate my perseverance.
