Who Is Susan

Place this script in the HEAD section.--> // There is nothing to edit in this section. // Please scroll down to the // section.

I am Susan, Susan I am. As you can see I have always been a big fan of Dr Suess. How does one go about describing themselves, what are the things that they most want to present to the world. I would have to say I am pretty average. I come from a small town in Canada, where I am happy. I work at a job that serves the major critiera...it pays the bills. I am single, not looking, not thinking about looking. I am a bit of a eccentric which is fine with me because I like eccentric's. It was what I wanted to be when I grew up and I succeeded.

I share my home with three cats whom I honestly believe think that I am their pet. We amuse each other quite a lot my cats and I.
I get a great deal of enjoyment out of the simple things in life, reading, walking, listening to music and learning new things. I try to maintain a relaxed life style....not take things to seriously...and not be to influenced by the hectic pace the world seems to have set for itself.
I consider myself a pacifistic Rebel, or in other words a contradiction in terms.

Two of my most favourite things are mythical images and movies that you just have to hide your head under the pillow until the worse is over.

I get a great deal of enjoyment from art and music but really have no all-time favourites. My tastes depend on my moods, and how my day is progress, or how it is not progressing. Because of my interest in philosophy I am fasinated by ancient cultures and the beliefs and myths that go along with them.

Echo and Narcissious
(painting by milton)
Narcissious was caused to fall in love with his own reflection in a pool for breaking the heart of a suitor. The nymph Echo fell in love with him but could not adequately express her passion because she had been condemned only to repeat the words of others. Her adoration unrequited, she wasted away until only her voice remained.

Rainbows are an illusion, a simple refractry bending of light, with spectaculer results. But could we not say also that much of the things we feel forced to indure are also illusions...a simple refractry bending of perspectives, with negative results...Philosphers have many times broached the subject the a great deal of our personal sufferings are inflicted upon us by ourselves, perhaps this is something we should take the time to consider before we imbark upon our next tangent.......

Star light, Star bright..They may not be magical but their as close as it gets..A reminder that as far as the universe goes, we are just a little point of light in a vastness with no end. Kind of humbling don't you think.

I have a wide variety of interests and things that amuse me. I do try to spend a little time each day doing something that I enjoy because I think to often in the hussle and bussle of daily life we forget the things that make us truly happy. We live in such a goal oriented society sometimes we loss sight of those things that make us individuals, and focus to much on KEEPING UP WITH THE JONES

I suppose every person holds onto an idea about what they think is the biggest problem facing the world today. I am no exception, I have the tendancy to be very vocal about the enviroment, civil rights, animal rights,and many other issues that there never seems to be an end to.

However, I am clear in the point of view that the biggest problem facing mankind is simple...we depend to much on other people to tell us that we matter...we judge ourselves not upon those things that make us each special, but upon the things that we think, make us less special then other people.

Variety is the spice of life, without it it would be a very boring exsitence

I don't know why I came,
I don't know when I'll Go,
But a fact is clear,
I am here,
in this world of pleasure and woe
An throw the dank and darkness
One truth is eternally plain
I have the power
each day and hour
to add to that pleasure our pain
Life is such a brief thing
we are alotted little space
but while I stay
I like if I may
To brighten and better this place.
So I've stopped wondering why I came
I've stopped looking for faults and flaw
I rose up today with pride and said
I am part of the first great cause
No matter how full the world may be
there is room for a honest man
it had need of me
or I would not be
I am here to strengthen the plan.

Sometimes when I am pondering (a thing that I do often) I wonder what it would be like for everyone for one day of their lives where allow to have their hearts desire. What would that be like,Funny though, one of the most important things that I have learn in my life is that anticipation and obtainment are two very different things. It is rare indeed, for our realities to measure up to what our dreams, or fears of them were. NOTHING IS EVER AS BAD OR EVER AS GOOD AS WE ANTICIPATE IT TO BE.
