About Me

ABOUT ME

Organized, kind though slightly picky, good chef, lucky, good writer, good friend -I think that's what they say. I usually look quiet, but I'm very nervous inside. I think I am also very tolerant, they say it is because I was born between the end of summer and the beginning of winter, I say it is because I have traveled around. I hate arguing because I always find everyone's right somehow, and sometimes I can't take sides. I prefer discussing, which implies listening.

PHILOSOPHY

Try to use both, your brain and your heart, to make decisions. Using just one of them can make us too extreme. Take what you need from nature as long as it makes no harm to it, and return it somehow with respect. Reuse first, recycle second, buy last. Praying is exactly the same as meditation. God is only in our minds, and if he existed, he obviously wouldn't look like a human, how dare we?
