Hello. My name is Carol. I'm a writer and a poet. It's a calling I ran away from for too long and now have been able to accept and embrace.
In my lifetime, I've learned so much that I'm now aware that I know nothing at all. I am a student of life and of people though, and while both continually change and evolve, they both also remain the same.
Music is a great passion of mine and I feel that God may have created it especially for me--at least for my type. I enjoy Jazz, R & B, and Rock 'N' Roll.
Though writing is my passion, I also love art. A few years ago I took up woodworking.
I've tried to learn something new every day of my life for as long as I've lived and that has served me well. I know quite a few things in a broad range of categories. I see myself living to the ripe old age of 85 and becoming a popular, well-paid writer at some point between now and then.
If I could die and come back as anyone who ever lived I'd pass. If I could have a dinner party with anyone from history, I choose Da Vinci.
