CURRENT MISSION

To be conscious and alive each moment, to live deliberately, to appreciate life's gifts, to keep a positive outlook and to make that positivity contagious, to spread love, to respect and heal the earth and all living things

ABOUT ME

i love life. i try to waste as few moments as possible being negative or angry. i try to love as much as possible. i have also been discovering the strength of my own independence. i love animals. i am a vegan (i don't eat meat or animal products-dairy, eggs etc.), and i cannot imagine living any other way. i love the earth. i only feel myself when i am surrounded by some form of nature. the fresh and lively green of grass and leaves gives me happy little tingles and makes me smile.
i want to treat people and the earth the best i possibly can, and i want to always be aware of what a great gift life and all it has to offer is.
