It takes courage to grow up to be who you truly are----e.e.cummimgs I'm a 50-something wife, mother, granny to five--still trying to grow up and become what I'm meant to be. I'm a nurse, massage therapist, and a Reiki Master. I like jazz, dark chocolate and making poems. I've been exploring the secrets of the universe. Come in--open the door--I'll share what I've found. http://www.mayyoubeblessedmovie.com http://www.1000voices.blogspot.com
