Hello and Welcome
Please call me Dove.
In the days and weeks to come; I will be adding to this profile, so feel free to return to my profile as often as you want to.
I am 57 years old and am continuing on to college to earn my Bachelors Degree in IT/Visual Communications at the University of Phoenix.
I am Native American (Mohawk and Seminole) German, Swedish, English and Dutch.
My likes or loves start with wolves. My best friend happens to be a wolf. His name is Okwaho, and he is black with a touch of silver here and there amongst the black of his long furry coat. At times it seems he disappears into the night, only to appear quietly at my side. Even though he lives in South Carolina, he still visits with me; especially when I need his calm spirit with me. He remains with me always, even in my dreams.
My other like is working with herbs. There is such a peaceful feeling when I am able to brush the leaves of rosemary, thyme, sage, mints, and drink in the fragrance they leave behind.
I would like to say I am just ME. I am someone who is quiet, timid and shy. If you need a friend, I am here for you; if you wish to stab me in the back that's fine, if that makes you feel better. I will always treat people with kindness no matter what. If you fall, I'll be there to help you up. If you hurt me, expect to see tears of saddness. Give me a smile and I'll return it forth with.
I am here to meet and make new friends along the way. I'm not really looking for anyone. I am happy as I am.
~My likes~
Wolves,
Dragons,
Butterflies,
Birds (Dove and Cardinal)
Unicorns,
Horses,
Faeries,
Trees,
Cats of all types, gazing at the stars, walks along the beach, looking and finding sharks teeth on the beach, baking bread (makes the house smell soooo good), bubble baths, herbal anything, knitting, weaving Dreamcatchers, making Indian jewerly, Harry Potter, colors of blue, teal green, purples, red, black. I enjoy playing games on the PS2 or the DS lite such as; Tombraider, Final Fantasy, Kingdom Hearts, Zelda, Metroid Prime just to name a few.
I like to curl up under a silky blanket, with a hot cup of tea or cocoa, and either read a novel, or watch a good movie.....Anything with Robin Williams, Tom Hanks, Richard Gere, and Sally Fields.
Falling asleep during a movie. (Seems I sleep the best during a movie, only to wake up during the credits to rewatch what I missed.)
~My dislikes~
Arguing, back stabbing people, foul language that is used to express dislikes of things. In my opinion that type of language seems to be used as a fill in. I didn't grow up with family that used foul language, so it just seems un-natural for me to hear it. Opinions are like belly buttons, everyone has one.
Abuse of any kind towards women, men, children, and even animals.
To some it may seem funny, but I am deathly afraid of spiders. As fragile as they are, the big ones scare me. I have the mark of the spider where one bit me on my cheek.
~Music~
I like most types of music. I don't really care for rap. Enigma has some great sounds, along with Savage Garden and many that I don't know who sings them, or the bands that play the music that I enjoy. I enjoy listening to Tori Amos, Garth Brooks, Bluegrass, Jazz, Country, Phantom of the Opera, Native American. My new found love is music by Nox Arcana.
~Books and Authors~
Harry Potter (all of the 7 books), V.C. Andrews, Eragon series, Cassie Edwards (a great author of the Savage series and others pertaining to Native Americans.), Stephen King, Dean Koontz. Inkheart, Inkspell, and Inkdeath by Cornelia Funke
~Favorite Movies and TV shows~
Practical Magic, Charmed, Harry Potter movies, Buffy the Vampire, The Crow, The Others, Bridge to Terabithia, The Last Mimzi. Phantom of the Opera.
~Interests~
I have many interests especially when it comes to learning. Many times I sit and wonder about things like when someone dies, a baby is born. I have also wondered about memories, what are they for? I am an empath, as I am able to sense things about people. I can be traveling in a car or even walking through a town, and feel things and smell (not sure how to describe it) the olden smells.
I like to work with tarot cards from time to time.
~These are a few of my totems~
