CURRENT MISSION

ABOUT ME
hmmm,I'm very complicated. I'm restless, and I want to positively impact the world, but I'm not sure how. I love unique people and selflessness. I have some days where I'm very outgoing but other days where all I need is a good book and some sunshine as my friends. I'm clumsy, a romantic, impulsive, hopeful, and sensitive. I can sense when other people are hurt or upset and I'm always a good shoulder to cry on. I'm finding out who I am right now, through trial and error.
PHILOSOPHY
Just do it, no matter the hardships, the rewards will be beautiful.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
When I was 17, I went to Mexico and spent some time at an orphanage, and saw the slums and the reality of the world. It was humbling and opened my mind. Last summer I was feeling depressed, gave up everything and started hitch hiking across the country to the rainbow gathering. I ended up in Los Angeles two weeks before Occupy LA started where I became an active member, was arrested for protesting and now despite this city's devilish tendencies, I have worked my way from the streets to a more fulfilling existence.
Teach, Learn, Share
I think I can share the wisdom of advice and counsel. I'm a very good listener and I'm good at motivating and cheering people up.
