CURRENT MISSION

Plan for Ireland in the spring

ABOUT ME

I am open-minded, easy-going, peaceful, intensly curious, and adventerous with an unsatiable thirst for life, knowledge and experiences of all kinds. I tried going to college but found that it's hard to pick a major when you're interested in everything. So I plan to travel the world, learning, teaching, experiencing life, and living it to its fullest! I am honest and easy to get along with, although sometimes I can be shy, (although I wish I wasn't). I enjoy meeting new people, exploring new places, learning new things, and exchanging knowledge and ideas. I'm currently planning a backpacking trip in Ireland with my brother, and our friend April 10-June 18 2008! We will be spending time in Dubin, then walking along the Wicklow way,the Munster ways, Blackwater way, and finally the Dingle way.

PHILOSOPHY

Peace, Love, Truth, Beauty, Happiness, Compassion, and Wisdom.
I believe regardless of how big and mysteryious life may seem, there are a few things we can know for sure. We can know that by treating all life with compassion and repect, and curiousity, we cannot go wrong. I believe that all life is sacred and I strive to live in balance and peace with the universe. I believe in the search for knowledge and understanding, and sharing knowledge. I believe that one should be happy, and that one's happiness need not infringe upon the happiness of others. I believe in the power of the individual to change the world. And I belive in the great cosmic WE, the essential oneness of the universe. One Love!
