Marsha, Marsha, Marsha!

Picture

Hi. I’m Marsha "Yasmine" Marie.

Hi, I'm Marsha. Thank you for visiting. 

A little bit about myself---I was raised in the beautiful sunshine of Phoenix, Arizona, but, at 25, I found myself trapped in a difficult and abusive marriage. Out of desperation, I went against court orders and threw myself into a 22-year-long self-exile in a small farming village in Asia.

During that time, I learned to cook authentic Pakistani cuisine on an open flame, began teaching English in schools and universities, as well as, dedicated myself to various community service works.

Eventually, I returned to my homeland, and am now sharing my incredible experiences
​and supporting domestic violence awareness campaigns. 


So, who is Marsha Marie?
Well, I’m a mom, seeker, teacher, trainer, speaker and now---a writer and poet;
​hoping to share with others---the world thru my eyes.
Fun Facts about me.....
​ 
I have three amazing children --one daughter and two sons. 


​My stomach starts hurting whenever I am late for ANYTHING!  I drive my family crazy because we are always the first ones to arrive at any function.


If I feel that I am being cheated in any store, I won't hesitate to start a fight with the employees.  Thus, my shopping vocabulary mostly consists of "May I speak to the manager, please !" 


My favorite historical figure is Cleopatra. 

During my childhood, I was teased at least one million times with this comment: 
"Hey, Marsha. Where's Jan?"


I sneeze just like my mother, about ten times in a row.  ....thanks Mom!


The dictionary is my favorite book of all time.  Thanks again Mom!


Most kids are playing on the playground in the first grade.  Not me! I was playing 'teacher' and making my friends take tests. Sorry guys! 


Yes, I'm really from America. 
(You'd be surprised how many times I get asked.)


I cried the first time I saw my pictures of the last photo shoot, because I hated my eyebrows --no, really, I still hate them! 
​

My favorite verse in the Bible is John 3:16---the gospel simply could not be any easier to understand. 


John 3:16 King James Version (KJV)-- For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life.
