About Me
Explaining me is like attempting to explain our reason for existing: there are many theories and opinions that abound, but no one set truth. Consequently, I am someone you simply must know to 'know', if you will.
That said, the obligatory cattle-call ..
I live with my two wonderful rescued cats in Toronto and strive to spend as much time on the road with concert-loving friends as I can. I take in as much of the music scene as I can; music is my lifeblood, and fuels my desire to live, love and feel every moment. To me, silence is a form of violence.
I was raised without religion; my family left it up to me to choose a path. I always had a loose set of personal beliefs without any name. When I was 16, a friend introduced me to Wicca, and my beliefs matched those of that path. I define myself as a solitary eclectic Wiccan.
I am bisexual and support gay marriage and rights, and will not be silenced when I see them threatened. I am compassionate and advocate for mental health care that heals, as opposed to merely overmedicating. I am sarcastic, bitchy and opinionated, and refuse to change for the status quo. I am Wiccan, and uncannily accurate with Tarot cards. I am pro-choice, which many pro-lifers consider pro-abortion; do not believe the lie. I am childfree and love it, and support crisis lines for children. I am who I am, and nothing more.
