About Me

CURRENT MISSION

To help the world go round

ABOUT ME

worker/student/crazy traveller

PHILOSOPHY

I need to quote others for this:

To laugh often and much;

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 you have lived.

This is to have succeeded."
Ralph Waldo Emerson?

"Be the change that you want to see in the world."
Ghandi

"LIfe isn't about waiting for the storm to pass. It's about learning to dance in the rain."
Anon

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I have been parts of Africa where I have seen the contrast of the very wealthy living closely to the very poor. It was an exaggeration or a representation of the world we live in. Not sure if it amazed me or broke my heart.
