Why is describing oneself so difficult?  The tendency is to write all my good qualities, and maybe embellish what I’ve done to make me sound like someone that I think you want me to be.

This year, 2010, I am on a mission to be as authentic as possible.  To practice this, I am going to tell you about the real me.

I just turned 60.  I got married in October of last year to the man I’ve dreamed of all my life.
I have three grown sons that are the delight of my life.
I have four grandchildren that are good looking, highly intelligent and gifted beyond belief.
I live for creating.  If I’m not actively engaged in some sort of creative project then my mind is dreaming up something colorful to do somewhere.
I’m a Christian and my faith leads the way for me.
I’m messy, scatterbrained and do not like housekeeping at all.
I am a good listener, compassionate, empathetic and forgive easily.
I have horrible eating habits, smoke and drink too many cokes.
My desire and mission with Creative Clown is to ignite a fire for journaling in others.  It saved my life, and I believe it can truly enhance anyone’s.
