Overview
About Me
CURRENT MISSION
Live my own truth all while maintaining a certain balance
ABOUT ME
I am calm, mature, caring, affectionate, teasing, pragmatic, and sometimes a bit weird. I am trying to be sane of heart, mind, and body. I am trying to live the present moment with a constant open heart and non-judgment.
PHILOSOPHY
to learn and evolve, to discover, experience, share, and love, to live life open-heartedly and without judging others
