About Me

ABOUT ME

I'm just enjoying a daydream about a dreamland where nobody tells a lie & the color of this dreamland is honesty & I'm preparing my curriculum vitae to get visa from this country.
Do you think dreams can come true?

PHILOSOPHY

-"Carpe diem" It is popularly translated as "seize the day".
-Honesty is the best policy.
-we`re not here for a long time, we`re here for a good time:)
-My method is to be independent & my destination is freedom!
-Dutch Saying:"Wie goed doet, goed ontmoet" it means:
"one who does good, recieves good"
-Life is a comprise (LIAC), I learned to tolerate and accept because there are many things I can't change.
-You can receive so much by giving and sharing what you already have.
-The mind is like a parachute, it does not work when it's not open.
