Who am I and why do I blog?
There is no one descriptor that I can use to describe myself though my perceptions and views define who I am. I do not fit into a neat little box, round hole, or definitive classification. In fact, I think when we categorize people in this manner we shortchange them refusing to hear what they have to say before passing judgment. I have had to overcome many obstacles in life and am still struggling with some. I do not take “NO” for an answer and am a problem solver by nature. My experiences have shaped who I am and how I see life. They have made me more aware of my surroundings and I appreciate life more because of them.
How I still see myself but this was taken many years ago.
July 2013
I have a background in psychology, education, philosophy, mathematics, computers, business, Biblical studies, and more. I have a variety of artistic talents and have been able to do almost anything I set my mind to. I also have a physical handicap that I never liked to discuss because I did not want it to be seen. I am truly blessed. I have taught school, managed restaurants, served as a caregiver to family members, have been a Sunday school teacher, a mother, a volunteer for Girl Scouts and other groups. Each opportunity has impacted me tremendously giving me insight for the next job ahead. I bring things to the table that are sometimes not considered but the biggest attribute I have is my heart. I have an enormous amount of compassion coupled with empathy for others. I care so much for others and this is the true reason I blog.
Garden2day is a blog name I came up with because I am a gardener of many things and want people to see that healthy seed can render incredible fruits in everything we do whether it is gardening, sewing or quilting, writing, teaching, etc.
So what is growing in your garden2day? I hope it is something WONDERFUL!
