There are many newcomers to my pages that may not have read this, to know these things about me; or to really think about these things from my heart.
I am only me. (But I am a pretty great "me" too). hehehe
Though I have added a comment or two within, the beliefs I hold dear remain the very same now, as then. (Yeah, I am kind of boring that way).
As stated, please keep in mind that you need not agree with me on it all. I have a tendency to celebrate our differences, and not whine about them...
And yeah, I really AM the person I have written about below... (kinda boring that way too)!
Here goes...
.
Good Morning to all;
...Before you push that button to ask to add me as a friend, there are a few things you need to know about me...
*Should you still want to be my friend at the end of this, please feel free to send me an invitation.
I cannot promise to be able to correspond, but I do promise to try.
I am finding it very hard to be keeping up with everyone, and apologize for this- Yet I do wish to be thanking everyone that has asked to be added as my friend too.
I have denied but a few people- on the grounds that I will never add an empty/closed page, or one without a photo; save for my personal friends and relatives. I am not the subject of anyone's fantasies (save for my own)- Nor do I wish to be added to be gawked at, or laughed at. I do not think I am that kind of "gods gift" or anything. I am not that kind of person.
I am not afraid to call a spade a spade. I believe this ability to be a positive thing- (although the situations I have lived through to be able to do this were not always thus)...
I do not care for nudity on my site or yours- .I will not be having a naked friend on my site- .I do not believe that to be necessary for friendship. Please keep your nudity in your clothes.
I am Indian, (Native American). Proud.
I am Irish too. 
..
I am hoping that you will know me as kind, compassionate, caring; (and halfway creative ~most times anyway)-
I have many positive energies- as well as a few negative ones- (we all possess those and work on them daily).
.
In the course of my life, I have been someones daughter, I have been someones friend, someones sister, and someones enemy.
.
I am someones mother.
I am someones grandmother.
I am someones heart. (Just that I don't yet know who that is)...
Yet even with all of this, I am always and forever a woman.
I am active, though not as active as I was after having fractured my back- (in too many places).
I am not afraid to sweat or to get my hands dirty- (although I wish never to get my name dirty).
I love and respect animals, (and yes, I abhor spiders).
I can run hot, cold, ---and every conceivable degree inbetween--- (I reserve my hottest for the most appropriate times-, and know when to be absolutely cold also).
I do NOT tolerate immorality.
I do NOT tolerate drunks, druggies, liars, thieves, or cheats.
I do NOT tolerate gossips for the sake of 'malicious' gossip alone. Although I have been known to gossip myself on occasion.
I do NOT abide suffering or pain; especially that kind brought on by someone who is supposed to love you with all their being- heart and soul. Nor whether it is physical, mental, psychological, (or even just imagined).
Pain is pain. ..
.. Suffering is suffering.
..
I have panic and anxiety attacks- sometimes fierce in their intensity- but yes, I have lived through them all, (duh?)- and I am *still* learning how to help myself through them.
I am in awe of thunderstorms, and reserve my utmost respect for the forces of Mother Nature; whether she is spews forth in in Spring, Summer, Fall or Winter.
I do not like to be too cold- or too hot.
I enjoy beauty- and all the wonders of nature- (except for those damnable spiders).
I really do enjoy mowing the lawns- I can be almost hypnotized when mowing, and my thought world can go anywhere. As in the shower, I sing while I cut.
I do not like to shovel snow, (but appreciate the added exercise it affords me in the dead of winter; as a few more calories bite the dust).
I am a Christian-
I believe in the Bible; although I do not practice reading it each day.
I believe too, that the ONLY words actually written by the hand of God are "The 10 Commandments".
I try to live by them.
I am neither fanatic, nor judge. You live your life. I live mine. (Although I do have a personal issue with those that do not believe that there is someone, something, greater than ourselves).
I believe in the Afterlife.
I believe in Heaven.
I believe in Spirits.
I believe I have been here before, and that I will be back again- (especially if I don't get it right this time).
I believe our lives on Earth might be Hell itself; or at the very least, a purgatory of sorts.
I do NOT believe in the devil, or whatever you choose to call him/it. Although I do believe that there are some very dark spirits and entities living amongst, and near, to us all.
I believe in Angels- of every phylum.
I believe I have chosen this path long before I was even conceived.
I believe in karma.
I believe there are good, bad, and downright ugly people in this world.
I believe because I know a few of them.
(I believe because I truly love a few of them too).
I believe in honesty; and in friendship.
I believe there is an innate and basic goodness in almost everyone.
I believe that beauty is in the eye of the beholder.
I believe that dogs and little children are the very best judges of character and integrity. I further believe that these same creatures clearly, and absolutely, see and understand things that I do not.
I believe that there is nothing that is absolutely black or white in this world;
- except for, well, black and white.
And I believe I should have said that first...
Have a good one.
XOXO
Anna~Anna
