| Bio: | "A young woman who has known both darkness and light, and will never be able to choose between the two." I recently graduated with a masters in physics/astronomy in Missouri. Now I have a job at NASA. "Physics is like sex. Sure, it may give some practical results, but that's not why we do it." I am a polyamorous, bisexual, kinky, pagan, and my primary obsession is reading books. I'll read almost anything if I have the time, but I read more fantasy and science fiction than anything else. I used to be involved in martial arts, and I've done a little belly dancing, so I'd like to pick those up again, but I haven't yet gotten around to it. I enjoy such things as camping, hiking, swimming, archery and horseback riding, though I don't do them nearly as much as I would like. I also do some writing, drawing, cross stitching, play some music, and do other random art-like things when the mood strikes me. "It's not illegal unless you get caught." Although I identify as pagan, I am constantly exploring and refining my beliefs and views of the world. This is an ongoing process that I do not expect to ever end. I pull my beliefs from many different cultures, traditions, and belief systems, real and fictitious. I constantly evaluate things I read or hear, and if it makes sense to me, I hold on to it. "Beliefs are dangerous. Beliefs allow the mind to stop functioning." Most of my posts are friends-locked, but if you want to get to know me, feel free to add me to your friends list. Leave me a message on one of my public posts to let me know you're adding me and why. If you seem interesting, I'll probably even add you back. "The meeting of two personalities is like the contact of two chemical substances; If there is any reaction, both are transformed." "The truth will set you free, but first it will make you miserable." "Every now and then, somewhere, someplace, sometime, you are going to have to plant your feet, stand firm, and make a point about who you are and what you believe in." "Courage is not the absence of fear, but the strength to do what is right in the face of it." "To the grim poor there need be no pour quoi tale about where evil arises; it just arises; it always is. One never learns how the witch became wicked, or whether it was the right choice for her - is it ever the right choice? Does the devil ever struggle to be good again, or if so is he not a devil? It is at the very least a question of definitions." Listen to the MUSTN'TS, child, Listen to the DON'TS Listen to the SHOULDN'TS The IMPOSSIBLES, the WON"TS Listen to the NEVER HAVES Then listen close to me-- Anything can happen, child, ANYTHING can be. "To err is human, but to really foul things up you need a computer." "There are three types of people in the world: those who keep going after they should quit, those who stop before the end, and those who can tell the difference but don't have a choice." "Fairy tales don't teach children that monsters exist. Children already know that monsters exist. Fairy tales teach children that monsters can be killed." "Isn't fighting for peace like fucking for virginity?" | |
