Wren, Beloved of God at ShoutLife.com

Oh, I put some of this in my blog post About Me, but I might go ahead and delete that. I feel somewhat bad because I stole some of Patrick's ideas, but they were pertinent to me, too. So I don't feel too bad...lol. Here they are:

spirituality. truth. beauty. occasionally silliness. trees. clouds. birds. the depths of human souls. art. writing. history. Scripture. theology. pondering. listening. watching. Had to leave it. I really couldn't change one thing on here. Will add a couple, though: cross-stitching and friends.

the wind blowing through pines and cedars, birds singing on a cool Fall morning, the ocean lapping up against a sailboat, a kayak paddle piercing the water, ravens calling to each other from distant trees, playing pennywhistle in the midst of a storm. And more conventional music too. Ok, I had to leave this, because it works for me, too. I have to add the sound of children laughing to it, though, as well as rain through the trees and the ocean pounding the shore. For conventional music, my favorites right now are Josh Groban and Jars of Clay. I also love Edwin McCain's music, Five For Fighting, Dave Matthews, Nickelback, Santana, Matchbox 20, Kutless, Family Force Five, Steven Curtis Chapman...and I'll think of more...

Nope. Not gonna do it. There are just too many.

Movies I'm an oddball. I love action films, and I'm learning to like modern war films. I love historical films, too, and foreign films. Fantasy, not so much, but sci-fi, absolutely. Comedy on a good day, especially slapstick, though Dumb and Dumber is too dumb for me. A good drama is hard to find, and chick flicks - well, they're cheaper by the dozen. Oldies are good, and musicals are romantic. In that light, I just can't pick one or two.

Television I never get control of the remote, thanks to my dad, but there are a few I like. The really suspenseful, supernatural, and paranormal ones really catch my eye. Heroes is now my new favorite. At one time, Buffy and Angel were ones I watched regularly, until I saw all of them. Star Trek Voyager is, in my opinion, one of the better ST shows. I'm not a fan of sitcoms, though I've liked one or two in my time. I hate reality TV, but I love Amazing Race. Go figure. Archeaological shows fascinate me, and Brit shows on PBS are a big hit.

Hey you! I miss you sis. I was looking at the photos of you and I in San Fransisco. I adore those!

I pray all is well.
