Bio for Graeme

My name is Christina Sala­ta. I’m 52 years young and mar­ried to My hus­band, who is get­ting ready to re­tire af­ter 30 years as a chica­go fire­fight­er. We have four adult children and two grand­chil­dren. I re­ceived my bach­e­lors of Arts de­gree in so­ci­ol­o­gy and hu­man ser­vices in 1994. I worked in the cor­po­rate world un­til 2008. In 2008, I made a mas­sive life change and be­came a walk­ing mail car­ri­er for the U.S. Po­stal Ser­vi­ce.

I am a vo­ra­cious read­er, typ­i­cal­ly in the process of read­ing 3 or 4 dif­fer­ent books on any giv­en day. One I read in the morn­ing be­fore work. One at the end of my workday while wait­ing to punch out. One in the evening af­ter din­ner and one I keep by my bed­side. All vary be­tween his­to­ry, world re­li­gions, phi­los­o­phy, and sci­ence.

My fa­vorite say­ing and the thing I’ve learned to say is “I don’t know” be­cause I know when I say that I’m about to learn some­thing new, and I love that!

I do yoga al­most every day as a form of move­ment med­i­ta­tion and breath work that I've found ex­treme­ly ben­e­fi­cial for my strug­gles with anx­i­ety. Dis­tance run­ning has also been a nat­ur­al rem­e­dy for my de­pres­sion, and I hope to com­plete my first ultra-marathon in 2025.

My pas­sion for the past three years has been writ­ing a fic­tion­al book that is a metaphor for what I see hap­pen­ing in our world and the strug­gles and pain I’ve walked through (well, some­times crawled through) in my life. It is not a project I write for any­one else but for my­self. It has been cathar­tic, and there­fore, I have not put a time­frame on it but let it flow from my brain to my fin­ger­tips as the uni­verse in­tends it to and at its pace.

Fast­ing was/is a cat­a­lyst for mas­sive change and heal­ing in my life, my hope in shar­ing my sto­ry is that it res­onates with some­one and, in so do­ing, helps them as well
