ABOUT ME

I'm a pretty laid back, extremely friendly person. I love being around people, hearing their stories and expanding my knowledge about life.

"True, we love life, not because we are used to living, but because we are used to loving. There is always some madness in love, but there is also always some reason in madness"
--Friedrich Nietzsche

" Life is your canvas. As a soul, you choose your starting colors - which are your body, your human personality, your country and family of birth. Then you come into your life, with your paintbrushes and colors ready to begin the artwork called your life. This is where most people get stuck. They hand their brushes and paints over to others and wonder later why the painting called their life, is not what they wanted it to be. Your life is not anyone else's fault or responsibility. Your life purpose is to hold your paintbrushes with joy and to paint a picture of life that is true to you - it can never be right or wrong, and you cannot fail at it."

PHILOSOPHY

No experience in life happens simply by chance. I am like a sponge and soaking up as many experiences as life will throw at me -good, bad, big, small, life tickling, earth shattering, devastating, growing, illuminating.
