Hey everyone. Nice to see kind-hearted people getting together and conversing. I am Tasha, from Indiana. I just started my 18th year of life, in July. :mrgreen:

I have a great desire and calling to help people through words, photography, singing, or simply being a friend. At one point I thought my passion was for writing/directing films, although that's not entirely out of the question, I am just focusing on my writing for now. I've been through a lot in my life and I can relate myself to most anyone’s pain, I am very sympathetic to people in that way. I have this gift through observation. I have observed the way of life, peoples pain, peoples joy, mistakes and their corrections, my whole life. I can put myself in their shoes and cry with them in their pain, but at the same time I can see through it and see how they will change and what steps they need to take to do so. I recently fully sacrificed myself for what God wants me to do. I am not a Christian, that stereotype is not the kind I want in my life. Most of the Christian people I have met, made me want to turn away from God. I was kicked out of a Christian school because of the simple fact that my opinions were too different from what they wanted me to believe. They wanted me to live in this simple box and think inside it. I am too called by my Lord to think inside a box, that's for sure. I do have the beliefs that a Christian does, but I do not call myself one. I call myself Spiritual when they ask my religion. People can be religious to anything in this world. But I choose to be spiritual about something out of this world. :)

So I look forward to getting to know you guys better. It's always nice to meet new people. Thanks for signing up on this forum, it shows you want to take a step and begin changing the world.

Your turn.. I want to know about you guys. What are your passions in life, your callings, things about you that people might not care about, but you do. I care too, so share them.


-Tasha Nicole

My name is Cathie and I'm 28, and like you Tasha I just cannot conform to the stereotypical "Cristian" phenomenon. I definitely believe in God and all of that but have my own beliefs too.

I'm a mother of 2, ages 2 and 4 (almost 3 and 5), a writer, a teacher though not by profession, a world creator (for RPG's ad my books), a reader, and all around a mentor to a lot of people. I've tried my hand at poetry, and while I liked the few I came up with, my heart belongs to novels. My current projects are a novel called "Dragon's Lineage" which is in its final section, and the National Novel Writer's Month competition (NaNoWriMo.org), which starts in November, and I'll be writing a book called "Distress Calls." I write almost every genre of fiction. "The Empty Locket" on Lulu.com was a young adult or independent reader level fantasy story. It was my first book and probably the the one piece of work that has taken the longest to complete (and it's still not complete for editing in my opinion).

I come from a military family. My parents were Navy, my sister and her husband were/are navy, my sister-in-law and her husband were/are air force, father-in-law was army now Christian minister, and my husband served in the Navy for 6 years and got out finally in February 2005. So this is my 2nd year ever being a civilian. I've been through a lot, needless to say. 9/11 was a major turning point in my life. I stopped watching the news because every time I did, I broke down in tears, and heard nothing but lies (they were flat out lying about when our guys would be home out on the ships). I hate what the world has become at times which is probably why I create my own.

Anyway just thought I would throw my intro up on here!!!
