CURRENT MISSION

To find that reason in life why I am here - on this earth. Just kidding!! I want to read more than I already do, travel little more, make new friends, eat more food (nom nom..) and focus on my yoga practice a bit more - i.e. if I control my breathing, I think I can do so much better but that seems like an impossible task.. Working on it though!!
Request for me to host you by addressing me as hey friend so I know you managed to read my profile before sending a note. If you have no reference - I will not respond to your request.

ABOUT ME

Many many years ago (I mean 7 years ago) - I ventured on this journey to move away from home and I learn something new about myself every other day. But in a most generic form - I am pretty easy going person (mostly because of my laziness), enjoy beers, ridiculous amount of love for good food, average cook, I do enjoy outdoors little too much and Minnesota is quite perfect. Noise, drama, gossips bothers me which in return brings out drama - to me which is more annoying than anything. Little shy but I make an effort to be part of the conversation and when I feel comfortable I start entering more normal mindset.

PHILOSOPHY

To win the respect of intelligent people and the affection of children;
To earn the appreciation of honest critics and endure the betrayal of false friends;
To appreciate beauty, to find the best in others;
To leave the world a bit better, whether by a healthy child, a garden patch or a redeemed social condition;
To know even one life has breathed easier because I have lived.
This is to have succeeded.
