I am Shelley, in
San Antonio, Texas, a
widowed mom with a heart full
of compassion, love & humor. I seek others with positive attitudes, who
want to enjoy moments given us to edify, uplift, & inspire each other
through life's challenges. Who I meet are... diverse people
with heart-enveloping stories to share! I enjoy listening & learning from their mistakes,
as well as, their triumphs.

I am a lover of jazz & Christian music, red wine, herbs, concerts, poetry, inspirational reading, bible study, picnics in the hill country, live theater, the San Antonio Symphony, romance & and coca-cola! I'm a great cook with diverse recipes. I enjoy light gardening, web design, full time school, & seeking truths through philosophical discussions. Being a mom, I enjoy juvenile humor, silly comedies, & lots of laughter during Friday night relaxing moments. My favorite way to relax is soaking in a huge tub of bubbles, with soft music (preferably the Pachelbel Canon) & candles aglow. The only thing that could compliment that is a full body massage. Oh yeah, each day a little bite of Chocolate keeps the hormones tame! I am a best friend to those I consider dear, & enjoy inviting company over for meals. Weekend ventures into the hill country lessens my stress!
are the most precious gifts I've ever received. After losing my first son, & many other loved ones, I know that I am here to support them & teach them what GOD has shown me so far.
My oldest married Aug.24, 2002 & went north to finish her studies of interior design, with her husband who is studying Film. She was a beautiful bride, too! She exudes a positive independent spirit & will make a great Interior Designer! Her wit and sarcastic puns make her one of a kind!
My middle child is rebelling from Godly principals right now, so pray for her return to a GODly life! She suffers with Cystic Fibrosis, a non-curable chronic disease. You would not ever guess that, being the sunbeam that she is, lighting the world, one smile at a time, when she isn't rebelling!!!
My son is... a former karate athlete, a comedian, who makes his own "spears" via tree branches, & his current interest GIRLS!!! His search of game codes makes him an internet junkie, as well as a master at video games! Challenge him & he will make you whimper! He also loves biking & his dog, Baron who smiles when we are home!

To believe your own thought...

I looked up & I saw God.
I chose to look forward to see what He had planned for me! I survived! (S.
Norman)
Never be afraid to trust an unknown future to a known GOD.
(Corrie Ten Boom)
He has achieved success who has lived well, laughed often and
loved much; who has enjoyed the trust of pure women, the respect
of intelligent men and the love of little children; who has filled his niche and
accomplished his task; who has left the world better than he found it, whether
by an improved poppy, a perfect poem or a rescued soul; who has never lacked
appreciation of Earth's beauty or failed to express it; who has always looked
for the best in others and given them the best he had; whose life was an
inspiration; whose memory a benediction. (Who said that?)
Experience is a hard teacher because he gives the test first, the lesson
afterwards! (Vernon S. Law)
So many freaks..... so few circus! (unknown)
It is only when we truly
know & understand that we have a limited time on Earth
& that we have
no way of knowing when our time is up,
then we will begin to live each day to the fullest, as if it were the only one we had."

Today is
the first day of the rest of your life.
You may not get tomorrow!
Who wakes up and says, "Today, I'm going to
die!?"
Tell someone you love them... smile at a stranger.
Just
STOP! Life is too short to run
everywhere!
Take time to love your mate <3
your children <3 your friends.
Reach out & help a single parent.
L-I-S-T-E-N to them! Stop judging
them. The world will be a better
place!
And God will smile down, and give you an extra diamond in that awaiting crown of yours!
After some
debilitating mistakes, I found the truth... GOD
's Grace, & his mercy
& his unending Love.
If you don't have a personal relationship
with Jesus, talk to someone who will share with you the truth...
but know,
not all so called "Christians" know Him in this personal way! Some are still
seeking the truth!
Some are just acting out what they understand is an act of
obedience...
There's a lot more to it than that! Ask, seek & receive!
The Lord will guide you always
He will satisfy your needs in a sun scorched land
and will strengthen your
frame.
You will be like a well-watered garden,
like a spring whose waters never
fail. (Isaiah
58:11)
"Never outgrow your love for sunsets!" (Bruce)
Each is new... each is different... a new beginning!
