About Me

- Terri Anderson O'Byrne
- 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!

Wildfire ...
Really no "significant" meaning in this song to me. Just one that has always made me stop and listen. Maybe today, is a "stop and listen" day as the morning has already led me to a couple stopping moments. First, I opened the door to let out my Baby early this morning as the sun was making it's way up ... and the willowy Birch tree out my back door made me stop in appreciation ... yellow leaves, gracing the lawn, spattered everywhere!! Overnight it seems, Fall is accumulating its presence. This morning there is a slight breeze, so some of the fallen leaves lying on the carpet of grass are giving in to a dance ... as if choosing their place of final rest. It is a pretty dance to watch as the breeze also carresses my face and further messes with the golden locks of hair already in madness from 7 hours of uninterrupted sleep.
In celebration of that dance and the sun making it's rise, I tilted the blinds open a little to bring it to the inside. Grabbed a cup of coffee. Sitting down, my eyes were drawn to a small gold painted wall outside my bedroom ... Blind markings were dancing on my wall ... (windows open, so the breeze was moving the blinds). Impressive because the sun first showed up in pink for a few moments ... and that dance on my wall startled me into "stopping".
And then, Michael Murphy played on my radio ...
And so the need to write ...

I've played this song 15 times now, over and over. For some reason, this song has always made me "stop". Again like movie credits, my past rolls before my eyes ... why do certain songs put a "movie" behind your eyes? ? This song, I think it is the title ... Wildfire ... maybe the mention of "Nebraska" ... maybe it is just the actual peaceful music ... though, it feels like I am wild with fire ...
