Hi Everyone,
I was just poking around various tabs on my HIVE page and as I was looking over the HIVEBUZZ tour tab, I saw that I had not introduced myself on this platform. So here I go:
My name is Cathleen McMahon. My nickname "Cat" was given to me in junior high but I didn't start using it regularly until I was 19 years old. Now that I am almost 53 years old, I am considering going back to my birth name, Cathleen. Many have a hard time with the nickname for some reason.
I have raised two lovely children into adulthood, mainly on my own since I married young and had kids young and was VERY niave about life. Of course that didn't stop me from making a TON of mistakes along the way, but I am still here. Still kicking.
I am a fiber artist or maybe more accurately a fiber enthusiast. I was taught how to crochet granny squares at 18 years old. Taught myself how to knit when I was 23 years old (from books since this was before youtube tutorials). I now spin roving (cleaned and processed wool and other fibers) into yarn, weave, wet and needle felt, and have even processed raw wool for various projects.
I have made several shoes from scratch. I have worked with children over the years. I started practicing yoga in 1995, teaching in 1999, and have transitioned to a more natural movement approach in the last 7 years for a variety of health and personal reasons.
I am a curious person by nature and love, love, LOVE to read. I am interested in a wide variety of topics and am a life long learner. While I may know a lot about certain subjects, I never feel like an expert and enjoy hearing a different perspective even if it is completely different than my own.
I am interested in the occult (hidden) knowledge that has been hidden in plain sight since the beginning of time. Because of my research over the decades, my belief in God and Jesus as my Lord and Savior has grown and solidified in my heart. (I NEVER thought I would be saying those words even 5 years ago. A lot has changed during my walk.) I believe we are all on a spiritual journey and my hope is that you will seek and find Him.
If you are curious and patient, I do believe your questions will be answered when the time is right. I do believe this is a time of divide and conquer programming by the "elites." I won't be taking the RFID chip and I won't sit back and watch while the world (seemingly) implodes due to the greedy olichary.
My want is to help in any way in my power. Encouragement. Information. Community support. Prayers. And just listening to what others have to say about these crazy days that we are living in. If the "elites" want us to fight each other, we need to do the opposite: build strong communities once more.
We are here for a REASON.
Never forget that. Take care, be well, and God bless!!
