CURRENT MISSION

To cultivate the garden of my mind

ABOUT ME

I'm into personal growth and living life to the fullest.

I am into experience, yoga, and love. Nature, music, and food are very, very nice too.

I believe we are all one and the only true purpose or calling in life is to help one another. We can only do this by teaching or learning.

I've been on some adventures. Lived in a tent for a few months, lived on the road for a few months, under a boardwalk (the mangoes were great!), hitch hiked from Maine to Louisiana after picking blueberries, mining crystals, and meeting lots of great people and dogs.

I try to live for experience. Sometimes I think my life might be taking a direction, and that's when I screw it up.

PHILOSOPHY

The boundaries of your life are merely creations of the self.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

People usually consider walking on water or in thin air a miracle. But I think the real miracle is not to walk either on water or in thin air, but to walk on earth. Every day we are engaged in a miracle which we don't even recognize: a blue sky, white clouds, green leaves, the black, curious eyes of a child--our own two eyes. All is a miracle.
-Thich Nhat Hanh, "Miracle of Mindfulness"
