CURRENT MISSION

indulging my curiosity ...

ABOUT ME

...If I were a geometric shape I would be a sphere! I like combining in my life experiences apparently opposites ...art and science...wild nature and skyscrapers... charm of a lit fireplace and Casino's lights! There's not just one way to be.. that's my only one. No wonder if my zodiac sign is Gemini!
Life is exploration and my compass is the sincerity...life is way too short to waste time deceiving or, worse, in self-deception :D
I like positive thinking and I like positive, curious people---->>>>>>> And of course, smile and respect go arm in arm!

PHILOSOPHY

"Fatti non fummo per viver come bruti
ma per seguir virtute et canoscenza..."
"You weren't born to live like brutes;
To pursue knowledge and virtue is your mission!"
There's always a warm-hearted feeling in kindness. Received or offered.
