CURRENT MISSION

Find some smiling faces and wit

ABOUT ME

I used to think I knew who and what I was. Ive scrapped that... I am on a mission to find my new purpose and find out what truly makes me grin in life. Life has a funny way of building you up then taking away everything to teach you lessons of humility and how we don't have a clue whats really going on. I for sure am grateful for the sun, stars, mountains and the sea to keep my ego in check, a daily reminder of whats truly important in life. The love of my pets keeps me going day to day. Smiles and laughs keep me inspired.

PHILOSOPHY

Whats the use in worrying, whats the use in hurrying?
Turn and turn, we almost become dizzy

Sometimes you just gotta jump in and let the flow of life take you to your next destination, where ever it might be. Explore the unknown. -Chris Tretheway
A bad ass who entered my life at the end of his. Im honored I got to share time with him the weeks up to his death. If nothing else. This site showed me magic thru him.
