One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Perhaps the most profoundly beautiful thing I have ever seen is human compassion and forgiveness. I have been humbled on many occasions as this gift was offered to me.

Some of my skills are: writing and editing, Kirtan music, Spanish language, cultural knowledge, outdoor skills, meditation.

I would like to learn: everything. Seriously, if you have something to share, I'm game.
