About Me

I am currently on a journey to find what makes my heart sing. I am lucky (some say blessed) to have received what I have so far in life while being so young. I am 22 years old. My dreams are to connect to people on a real level, the most foundational that is human nature itself. To become One Mind, and to share whatever glory we can find there. I like to live a life of non-attachment, I have had Buddhist influences, I have experienced what I at first called God, and even now may reference it that way to speak universally about it, and I agree with Taoist Philosophy very much. I know the Tao.. and its many secrets and this is the glory of One Mind. As some f you may know, the Tao which can be spoken of is not the eternal Tao. And boy isn't that the truth! I love people, I don't want to claim to be anything, but I am most likely easy to get along with as long as I can be me, and of course you be you. We will be great friends( : I want only to be a drift of wind, but like any wind intimately and softly refreshing.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Why I am on Couch Surfing, because I have dreams. Because I am a female and of small proportion. I am in need of some planning when I want to take trips. Unfortunately I could not stick out my thumb out on the side of the road for a cross country road trip without at least a 40% chance of danger. Gotta do what I gotta do! So this means if I need to crash on a welcoming persons couch, then so it will be( :

Interests

My interests... Astronomy, oh little Earth we are what we are and its amazing to think that we are of just one happening through out an entire UNIVERSE of happenings. Its incredible and really takes me to consider just what it means to be alive, and what possibilities are out there on this planet to explore. I can not take a traditional predestined college route that some consider worth taking, being alive is timeless. I can't imagine another way of living than the way I have chosen now. I am increasingly interested in Metaphysics, Philosophy (although much has already been said and done so talking about what can not eternally be named gets to be pointless, its time to start doing it!) I LOVE Science. All of it, it ties beautifully with my tendency to think philosophically and wonder/ask about the nature of everything. And once again, I am so completely honest with every person I meet, it causes me super bad anxiety to not be honest (no kidding, what a gift! I start sweating if I can not be honest with a person, oh boy I just do not like it) I am so interested in One Mind and the understanding that everything is connected because I believe this is how I have been able to ask the questions I do, to no body, just asking a loud in my head and I get answers. Big old things that come swinging out if the air that say "Hey! I am that answer! Listen up!" Incredible- that (so you know) is what I once did call God but now just consider incredible. I love being able to speak the unspeakable and share ideas and hear ideas, I love to see first hand just what the energetic happenings of our planet are right now, and nothing is better for this than jumping on out there!

Music, Movies, and Books

I have recently been on a huge binge of Alan Watts on Youtube, and found everything I was looking for from him. Every question I had about what path if a path and he answered it. I have recently finished Tales of Power by Carlos Castaneda and this was the book that over Christmas break from the University I was attending, this is the book that sprang me into realizing all that I want is real. There was a teacher like Don Juan, and Don Juan I cried so many times begging and pleading that I may meet a teacher like him- He is my hero, and although the wave I ride on may not take me there- this book shook me loose of whatever was stopping me from pursuing it. I cried and still feel so much pain from the the time I started that book to just recently when I finished it, I cried, oh wow I have never ever dreamed that someone would know just as much and more than I do on exactly the same thing- oh wow. wow. After finishing that book I began reading Radix by A.A. Attanasio and this book too speaks of the same things I know about and have felt and related to many times, it is comforting after having ended Tales of Power and motivating to get off my butt and go! Go see if I can find the teachers I am either desperately trying to find, or am meant to find. Either way, I am ready to go and do this now( : My favorite music? I love the Beatles, they are such creative musicians with personalities of no makeup, no hiding, no pretending. Respect man! Hallelujah!

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

One amazing things I have done? I found my lover on Omegle internet webcam chat site. We had one common interest: "Life". This person whom I met two years ago now, is still my best friend and lover today. I have visited him many times and he has actually come from California and lived with me here in Pennsylvania for 5 months. When you know, you know. These things seem to just never happen, and yet they do. Honesty. Honesty and following our hearts leads the way I am sure- Another amazing things I have done, I have made many people feel better/happier/relieved, free, and more appreciative and loving of their own time here awake like this on earth. That is a great thing, I am so thankful to have inspired and been inspired.
