Tara
means Star
A soft-looking woman with blue eyes,
very fair skin, and short blond hair with frequent pink or blue streaks in it,
her exterior belies a whim of steel. Tara loves to dress up for everyday
occasions and wear amazing heels. She
has an elegant, cool air masking strong opinions and a sometimes prickly
manner. She will let you know if she’s happy or sad. Tara is the second to
youngest in a family of seven children and yes, we all have the same parents.
We often joke that Tara had five mommies. With four older sisters and an older
brother, the only way to survive in a large family is to be strong-willed. And
she is strong in her likes and dislikes. Tara loves her animals and is a
devoted pet mom, who supports animal and environmental causes. People, to her
mind, are on their own. She swears she dislikes children and she will never have
them. However, she will get books and small presents for no reason at all for
her nieces and nephews. She often gives gifts just because, but refuses to do
birthday or Christmas presents. One family trait we share is no
tolerance for boredom. She’s good with money and ran a successful business as a
massage therapist until she became bored with it. She went back to school to be
a physical therapy technician, got bored with that and then went to work at a
lab. She is a talented artist, but stopped drawing because she got bored! I
can’t wait to see what she does next. My sister is a voracious reader, loves
Chinese food, Halloween, and movies with explosions. She despises ignorance, anything
creamy, Christmas, and movies with sex. Tara is a quirky, interesting person to
be related to and I quite enjoy being her sister. Oh, I picked out her name,
it’s Hindu and means “star”
