My name is Rochelle Foster. I have been a hair stylist, an instructor at a cosmetology school, and currently I am Victim/Witness Coordinator. (I work with victims and witnesses of crime by helping them through the court process and find services for them.)
I am a 39 year old single gal that has not had the opportunity to be married or have children. Though having a spouse and children is something that I desire; it hasn't happened for me yet. But...because of this experience I HAVE the unique opportunity to spend my down time getting to know some amazing people; particularly women.
At one point in my life I was searching for a moral compass, and ultimately I decided that no matter what I decided on as a religion or spiritual path I knew I wanted one thing to be the center of what I believed and that is: love; love of God, love of self, and love of others. One of the ways I implement this philosophy is my love of learning. I have spent my life searching for information. I think when you ask questions and truly listen people will tell you details about their life that they wouldn't normally divulge, like: what they think, and feel, and want. Their anecdotes seem, for me, to connect to knowledge about science, art, and even spirituality. However, this method of learning by relying on the sophistry of men sometimes gets in the way of my spiritual quest because it is their experience with the world not mine. I have to remind myself of this, so I don't compare and get discouraged with my path.
