Overview
About Me
CURRENT MISSION
Finding a balance. Doing what I want. Being as much as can be. I want to do something useful and helpful. And I want to make music because I love it. I want to go to an other country to help working for a better world.
ABOUT ME
I love trees. A lot. But mostly it's just because I can identify with their way of being so present all the time. Loving.
I am a calm person. Most of the time... And I want to do something good as long as I'm here. Maybe, if I have time enough on this planet, I can actually change some small thing. Make it better. More just.
I love music. Maybe for the same reason that I love trees for. But what's different is, that it reaches everyone. And that is very beautiful. We can loose our self-hood and become something... nothing... everything...
PHILOSOPHY
I think, life's going to bring you somewhere... and that's nice. The nicest way of living it is by just accepting where it is and then looking out for where it can go. Trying again and again to go into the direction, one wants to go to. Step by step.
And if you do the things that you want to do with love, it will be good. Let this love of the world flow through you and your actions...
"Love and do what you want" (by Saint Augustinus)
