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. |
