If- Kidling

My birth date is June 7th of 1975, Gemini. At 45 years of age, I am in the prime of my life. Single, enjoying my own company and enjoying all that I do! A 9th grade Jr. high school drop out, growing up in South Central L.A. I was determined to not attend Freemont High school. I had heard a girl was killed in that High school; I was terrified. Therefore, leaving me no choice other than leave home at the age 16. Now, I am so close in completing a counseling masters program. In addition, I am a license chemical dependency counselor intern.  I remember when attending school began as an escape from my un filled marriage. I chose Mental Health due to experiencing depression through out my life. I wanted to understand the brain chemistry. The reasons why some individuals are smarter than others? In my mind I personally run psychometrics when I speak to an individuals...wondering what is the differences in brains? Is it the speed of neuronal synapses? Is there a variance in the amount glial cells individuals have? Questions are endless... I have experienced hardships, happiness and accomplished dreams while in school. I have learned that hardships keeps me humble; and I thank God, it does not change my loving personality. I see hardships as challenges I must master! I love animals!!! I live in a small ranch, which eventually will be part of an animal assisted emotional support substances use disorder counseling center. I keep busy!!! The animals I care for are as follows: Peacocks, peahens, chickens, an Arabian mare, a mountain welsh filly, a Holstein cow, Hereford calf & Holstein/ Jersey mix calf, an angus bull, and a Brangus steer. Oh and lots of Cats and a Mut dog; a Great White German Shepherd and the love of my life, Cutie, a Siamese bossy male cat!!! View all posts by Sonia Quijada
