PHILOSOPHY

Get rid from close-minding stuff like everyday way of thinking. Feeling (in the largest meaning) instead of thinking. Be conscient of what things ARE ( not of what we THINK THEY ARE) and make choices to maintain a balance in all these relationships.

Interests

Mostly Music. I love the way music is transcient, the way you have to live it in the moment as pure experience of life and humanity. I play the piano and the trumpet for some years and it's some pure hapiness for me.
For other things, I let my curiosity lead me.
