All About --
Me
Born in the West Indies, educated in the U.S.
and currently living in Europe, I have been given many
unique opportunities throughout the years and I didn't
let them pass me by. I have served in the military,
traveled extensively, earned four educational degrees
and am currently working towards my next one. I love
books, animals and stormy weather. You can find me most
evenings (when not reading a book) debating philosophy
with my husband and playing with my two cats --or
is it the other way around? Either way, it makes
for a fun evening.
The Site
What started out as a simple project; to organize
a stack of research papers in an attempt to tidy my
office, has turned into a major endeavor. From little
acorns, big oak trees do grow. Now, my office is even
more of a mess than it ever was; books strewed across
the floor and paper scattered everywhere. As for organization
(that’s a laugh) -- I am still scrambling about,
looking for bits of paper containing pertinent information
needed for one thing or another. Ah well, in chaos I
do thrive. Once completed, I was fully prepared for
my URL to sit in a little corner on the world wide web;
visited by the odd surfer now and again. Well, while
still not being completed one year later, little did
I know the site would be so well received.
The Title
The Agnostic Witch, with its
contradicting semantics, describes more than just the
sites’ content but also who I am –-a paradox.
Can two opposing views exist at the same time? I think
it can. Agnosticism keeps all the possibilities and
probabilities within the discussion; it closes no doors.
The term ‘Witch’ encompasses all the nuances
of its many meanings both heretical and metaphysical.
However for me, it also epitomizes something more --the
ability to think outside the box; to push the boundaries
of the accepted norm.
and … Life
We are born and we die. These
are certainties. Everything else in between is of our
own making; so make it good.
