About Me:

I did have a career in banking and as a Trust Co. accountant.
Over the years I've done a fair amount of volunteer work
with my chief interest being hunger in the third world. I've worked as a Unicef volunteer for 15 years.

I have a daughter ( divorced) and grandson,age 12, who live with me the past seven years. I had a ball babysitting my grandson from age 6 months. Here I was in my late 50's attending nursery school, playing in the sand box, going down the slides, swinging on the swings....lol...who would have guessed ! I enjoyed going to the school, chatting with the parents etc. He's independent now and I'm having to start over again and get on with my own life.

I have been brought up and raised in the Presbyterian church although I am not now affliated with any church or spiritual organization. Christianity is my roots and remains so. I do incorporate some of the New Age beliefs into my understanding as well as Eastern spiritual ideas. I believe every religion has truth and one truth may not be more valid than another. There is no absolute truth. However we have choices and I choose Christianity i.e. the Ten Commandments and Jesus as my basic truth to live by. I do not read the Bible literally .

It was lovely to read what you wrote about Baha'i and Christmas. I'm Baha'i and have been for 3.5 years. I really enjoy the devotional meetings in our friends homes and the belief in unity!
