Held, Not Bound

What relationships have a positive impact on you?

The ties that heal, not hold or bind,
Are gifts that gently shape my mind.
In simple love and honest cheer,
They make my path feel warm and clear.

Views in Motion

How have your political views changed over time?

Once I spoke in certainty, bold and loud,
Now I listen longer, less tied to a crowd.
I’ve learned that truth has many views,
And wisdom grows when kindness steers the news.

Driven by Joy

What is your all time favorite automobile?

My silver Ford feels like a second home,
Carrying my dreams wherever I roam.
With every mile, it hums my tune,
A steady companion beneath sun or moon.

Those Who Shape Me Softly

Who are the biggest influences in your life?

Rain, for lifting hearts and washing worries light,
Wind, for brushing souls with gentle, unseen might.
Sun, for holding us in warmth when days feel bare,
Trees, for teaching love that gives, and doesn’t care.

Born Into Becoming

Share what you know about the year you were born.

Born in a time when letters lingered and patience had weight,
when dreams learned to wait before knocking on fate.
I carry the calm of slower days, quietly wise,
bridging old-world depth with new-world skies.

Beyond Words

Are you a good judge of character?

I read hearts more than words they choose to show,
listening to silences, watching patterns flow.
I trust the quiet cues, the consistent part,
so yes, I judge character best by the shape of a heart.

The Happiest Pause

When are you most happy?

I’m happiest when a path clears out of haze,
when something beautiful unfolds without chase.
I look up at the sky, smile softly, and say,
Thank you, God, for walking with me every step of the way.

Joy On Repeat

What was the last thing you did for play or fun?

I don’t pause life to play, I play my way through,
finding joy in the ordinary, seeing magic peek through.
Every role I live sparkles with mischief and grace,
because fun isn’t a break, it’s my way of keeping pace.
