Christine ~ AlwaysForeverCj

NY

Multi-dimensional, Fire & Ice, Proud Military Mama & Nana. Emptynester approaching a cross-road in life, determined to find my way.

Lover of life & laughter, "Just Because" is my favorite reason for many things ~ BIG believer in R.A.O.K.. Enthusiastic for and about people, places and things. I root for the underdog, a cheerleader for those overcoming obstacles in life.

I am the one who can be found crying during the National Anthem, America the Beautiful, the Olympics, certain commercials, weddings, new babies and passings. I believe in the power of human kindness, the spirit of humanity, in life's beginnings and hopefully, gently endings - in its right time.

It's gotta be good and it's gotta be soft - "It's my one weakness!" can you name the show this quote is from (think BBC).

Leftover remnants of my childhood: My love of all things Winnie-The-Pooh "The things that make me different are the things that make me." Anne Frank, Jane Austen, See's Chocolates, fine Teacups, Football & Baseball. What can I say?

Music is the soundtrack to life - 1 note, 1 lyric at a time. Dancing like a fool, in my car, home or in the rain, when no one is looking - that's me! Music moves my soul, great conversation feeds it. I'm also a tech gal at heart, tech gadgets & learning em makes me giddy! I truly love to learn new things! When we stop looking, asking, trying - we stop learning, growing, thriving.

Being creative, having a creative outlet, whether via writing, photography, yarn arts, cooking/baking, creating anything - it's my well - the place I go to replenish, when life has tried to wash away the color of my dreams.

Creativity is "unique". We each have a voice in how we write, the photos we take, the things we create. We have a story within each of us - it is in the telling and h
