About Me

CURRENT MISSION

experiencing, growing, exploring

ABOUT ME

it is the eye and mind of the beholder that determines what we see and believe. not the object of our contemplation in itself...

But of course everybody has a story to tell. So I left Germany on the mission to travel, to change, to share, to learn, to love and to live.
I'm very much a person that goes with the flow, easy-going, grounded- playing the game of balance with living on earth.
Also when i have a huge family and friendscircle, i'm infected by wanderlust, exploration and living close to nature.
I love to be creative in every way and stoked about learning more about ways to express, what ever comes through. i like to enjoy life, be positiv and still be with all the facetts of feelings, that coming up in a adventures life.
I'm feeling very stoked about to live in that time and to share and connect with so many wonderful people!

PHILOSOPHY

Stages

As every flower fades and as all youth
Departs, so life at every stage,
So every virtue, so our grasp of truth,
Blooms in its day and may not last forever.
Since life may summon us at every age
Be ready, heart, for parting, new endeavor,
Be ready bravely and without remorse
To find new light that old ties cannot give.
In all beginnings dwells a magic force
For guarding us and helping us to live.

Serenely let us move to distant places
And let no sentiments of home detain us.
The Cosmic Spirit seeks not to restrain us
But lifts us stage by stage to wider spaces.
If we accept a home of our own making,
Familiar habit makes for indolence.
We must prepare for parting and leave-taking
Or else remain the slaves of permanence.

Even the hour of our death may send
Us speeding on to fresh and newer spaces,
And life may summon us to newer races.
So be it, heart: bid farewell without end.
(Hermann Hesse)
