CURRENT MISSION

Live mindfully and with love toward all beings

PHILOSOPHY

My personal philosophy changes regularly. I generally regard the world as a positive place, underneath it all. It's the projections, and distortions of who we really are that create the conflicts, that create the greed, that create the war, that create the hate. I believe awareness of this moment, here and now, is what we need to live for and remember as much as we can. I believe we need to listen to and speak from our hearts and feelings more than we need to listen to our heads and thoughts. I believe we need to work with ourselves just as much as we need to work with each other. There's healing to be done in this world. It's not only possible for us to heal wounds and repair harm, but it's inevitable. What a blessing.
