Please allow me to introduce myself.
I am a recently widowed, newly retired babyboomer. In birth order, I am third of nine children. My blessings include six of the most wonderful grown children and nine of the grandest grandchildren on earth. In my spare time I enjoy studying the scriptures along with studying the worlds religions and other forms of spiritualism. The world would label me a Christian however I like to think of myself as a follower of Yeshua, the Son of the most loving heavenly Father, namely Yahweh [ more commonly referred to as Jesus and his heavenly father]. I choose not to use the term God when referring to the Soveriegn. I like to refer to Him as the Father or Yahweh because He has a name and he is so much more than a god.
Handcrafts and browsing the internet occupy a large portion of my time. Some of my favorite handcrafts are knitting, crocheting, papercrafts, making simple toys and games, and anything that stimulates creativity. Alot of my time is spent studying on the internet.
Some of my additional interests are : exercise, proper diet, sleep [a very wide topic], positive self image, the ability to set and achieve goals, the ability to give of oneself and recieve from others, and all things leading to the Father. In the same light, I acknowledge other forms of spiritual fulfillment. The Spirit is One. However I particularly like the way the native American Indians and the Japanese choose to identify with It.
