About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Learn ,laugh ,love.

ABOUT ME

I'm originally from London' but have been living in Edinburgh for eight years.
I enjoy many things in life and try not to confine myself to any philosophies, groups, clubs, ideologies, or thoughts. Freedom is everything to me. But, I do have an opinion !!

PHILOSOPHY

So often I find my self wishing, hoping, praying for the good times/feeling's, but the older I get the more I realise that that's not what life is about. To enjoy anything we need perspective/objectivity. And that only comes through riding out the rough times with as much dignity and generosity as I can muster. Although these can be very hard to come by when I'm feeling down!!!

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Laughed and laughed and laughed, until it hurt so bad!

Teach, Learn, Share

There is only one rule in life; and that is: There are no rules. Every single moment is unique, and if you try and apply rules that have worked in the past, there is a very good chance that they won't apply again. Keep your mind open!!!!
But, that's not to say we shouldn't use our experience to guide and inform, just don't expect life to keep repeating itself. How boring would that be!!!!!
