About Me

My photo
A Scorpio, I am. Sign of water/sexuality. Emotion. Myers/Briggs personality test resulted INTF (Introvert, Intuition, Feeling, Perceiving) 100% accurate! Only 1% of the world pop. has this personality type; the other 99% has trouble relating to INTF's! I am extremely introverted, can handle noise/crowds for exactly 1 hour before retreating to the quiet or my music somewhere. Oddly enough, I am drawn to customer service. I know these things: I love who I am! I love emotion. I am vulnerable. I care deeply. I love. And I love deeply. I will wait it out for return. I long to be loved. My children are my world. Nature is my solace, my constant, my peace. I hear each bird's tweet, adore shapes in the clouds, share the moon with everyone I know, smile at the song of my windchimes, wonder at the growth of a flower, drive to chase sunsets, enjoy a great storm, relax fully when the ocean is outside my door. My favorite word is dance. Dance represents how I strive to live..to a beat that allows my body and soul to release in rhythm. I am over 50 now. Dance with me ... while there is still time!

Aikido is a traditional Japanese martial art and spiritual path

Don't ask why I have gone here ... or why I have gone here at this hour ... just read

And yes, Steven Seagal is a "Dan 7" (a black belt at the 7th level) in the martial art of Aikido.

O-Sensei, Morihei Ueshiba was "profoundly" influenced with his martial art Aikido, in the religion ~ Omoto-kyo. 

One of the spiritual leaders of Omoto, has this to say (from a book In Search of Meaning, by Hidemaru Deguchi) : 

"In this life, human beings find true happiness when people love and are loved in such a way that they have kindly and grateful feelings toward each other.
Nevertheless, each person needs ONE other individual in whom he can place absolute trust.
Without such a relationship we will always feel rather lonely."
