Who I am  

      + Welcome! Thank you for taking the time to view my website. I am a devout convert Catholic who lovingly follows all the teachings of our Church although modernism claims they are out of date. Following all of The Church’s teachings is a requirement for us, because God gave us His teachings through the wisdom of the Holy Spirit for our protection and benefit. As Catholics, we are blessed with the richness and fullness of being The One True Church through Holy Scripture, The Sacraments and the Traditions of the Church. I assist at a traditional Latin Mass approved by the local ordinary or a liturgically correct vernacular Mass. I am an outgoing, open-minded, modest, and orthodox Catholic lady. Music, psychology, theology, history, politics, the arts, dancing, cooking, baking and intellectual activities are my passions.  My physical wellbeing is ensured through a healthy diet, good hygiene and moderate exercise. I am a genuine lady who enjoys those ‘sacred’ feminine rituals and things. ;) I love animals and own several cats (or do they own me?). Although I am an outspoken person, I’m also known for my sensitive heart and ability to empathize with others. Often I reach out to those in need and offer them support or words of encouragement. When I offend or hurt someone apologizing is not beneath me. Prayer especially the Divine Office, quiet time, charitable humor and the ability to mention our Lord, Lady and faith in daily conversation are vital parts of my life. I believe respect, charity and prayer are requirements when dealing with others, because without respect and charity, honesty can be cruel. I am a kind hearted, spiritual, witty, and outgoing lady who is in love with our Lord and enjoys simple things in life such as Eucharistic adoration, attending daily Mass, conversations and spending time with friends, long walks, picnics, chivalrous gentlemen, doing for others, reading good books, and hot chocolate with marshmallows.
