CURRENT MISSION

Life is short - death is long - act accordingly!

ABOUT ME
Please do not send a friend request to me, when we have not met. I like to make friends, but not by adding someone as a friend to a list.
I love to meet people, especially people that are openminded, honest, enjoy life, with a sense of humour and like to communicate with others in an honest and open way.

PHILOSOPHY

The only constant thing in life is change.
You have only one life - live it.
Be the change you wish to be. -Ghandi

Das Leben ist keine Generalprobe.
Nie ist zu wenig was genügt. (Seneca)

Habe Mut Dich Deines Verstandes zu bedienen.(Immanuel Kant)
Das Vergnuegen ist so wichtig wie die Arbeit.
(Gotthold Ephraim Lessing)

Wende Dein Gesicht der Sonne zu, dann fallen die Schatten hinter dich.

Wahrhafte Groesse besitzt jener, der anderen ein Gefuehl ihrer Groesse vermittelt.(G.K. Chesterton)

好好学习天天

Oskar Wilde:
Auf seine eigene Art zu denken ist nicht selbstsüchtig.
Wer nicht auf seine eigene Art denkt, denkt überhaupt nicht.

Gesegnet seien jene, die nichts zu sagen haben und den Mund halten.

Leben, das ist das Allerseltenste in der Welt - die meisten Menschen existieren nur.

Wenn ich Selbstgespäche führe, weiss ich dass ich einen interessanten Gesprächspartner haben.

To love oneself is the beginning of a lifelong romance.

A red rose is not selfish because it wants to be a red rose. It would be horribly selfish if it wanted all the other flowers in the garden to be both red and roses

I travelled on all continents and it is difficult to name all the amazing things I was able to experience, and definitly: I don't want to judge them. We will make a lot of good and bad experiences, but we will learn something from each one. And I am grateful for the experiences I made, the people I met, the places I was able to travel to.
