11 Questions from Ally

Do you have any pets?

I have a 15-year-old calico cat named Scarlet, and a 3 year old Columbian Red Tail boa constrictor. They are my babies.

If I could meet anyone from the past, who would it be and why?

This is so hard to answer. One person, out of all the people who ever lived… I would want to meet the Buddha. I would want to be able to hug him and to thank him for helping me through so many hardships.

What are some of my hobbies?

I love cross-stitching, puzzles and maille.

Do I prefer to drink coffee or tea?

In the mornings I have a cup of coffee to help wake up, and in the evenings I have a cup of chocolate green tea to settle down. So both?

What is my favorite session and why?

Summer. Long days full of sunlight so I can get tons of stuff done. Things are growing. There is so much energy and life everywhere. And it’s warm. You’ll never hear me complain about summer heat. Ever.

How long have I been blogging?

This is a tricky answer. I have been doing my ‘daily writings’ for about two years. My first WordPress blog was created about six months ago. But I’ve only been writing on this one for about three months.

What are a couple of my favorite movies?

Across the Universe and The Game. Fight Club is up there, too.

If I could pick one favorite book, what would it be?

This so isn’t fair. All of my books are going to glare at me when I get home. If I had to pick one, only one, I think it would have to be The Sword of Truth by Terry Goodkind.

What is my favorite color and why?

My favorite color is purple, the color of the 7^th charka, which represents our connectedness to the universe and all things around us.

What is one of my favorite quotes?

“I realized one day that if my friends talked to me the way I talk to myself, they wouldn’t be my friends anymore. So I started being my friend.”

What is my favorite type of music or favorite song?

My music is all over the place, but my favorite song is Between Us and Them by Ulrich Schnauss.
