CURRENT MISSION

Searching for home

ABOUT ME

[Note: don't be fooled by my "last login" info - that MIGHT be my VPN making me look like I'm somewhere where I'm not]

I'm a nomad searching for home. I guess I'm too fussy or just indecisive, but now I'm not so sure :)

What I'd say about myself and what others would say about me, are probably completely different things. I'm also sure that others wouldn't be able to agree amongst themselves on some description of me.

I'd say that with one person I'm completely different to how I am with another. Just depends on their personality. I can be very chatty or very quiet, extrovert or introvert. It all depends on my company!

I'm a non-strict vegetarian, which means I never buy meat or order dishes containing meat but if someone screws up and gives me meat then I'd rather eat it than throw it away. I guess I value waste lower than meat-eating.

Also, I hardly ever drink alcohol but now and again make exceptions for special occasions (like beer festivals :) ). However, that doesn't mean I don't like going out - I do - especially to dance!

Maybe this all sounds stricter than it really is? I'm not religious about anything. Everything is subject to change at any moment. I'm not someone who wants to maintain a record like "Its been X years since I last did Y". Records are only there to be broken or ignored.

PHILOSOPHY

Be this, be that, blah blah blah blah!

mind: poi, shoonya, selected spiritual books
body: hatha yoga, dance
energy: kriya yoga

general: laughter - haha!

Favourite quote: "Hesitation is the worst sin" - Krishna

Least favourite saying: "Treat others as you would like to be treated yourself". I never understood this one. Surely its much better to "Treat others as THEY would like to be treated"? If someone wants a drink, should I give them what I want or they want!?

Interests

Cultures, personalities, individualities, curiosities, unimaginables, meditation, yoga, unstructured/free dancing, poi spinning, juggling, pool, snooker and lots, lots more.

I really like photography but as part of my minimalism drive I no longer have a camera. Now I take shots with my mind :)
