About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Be and not become.

ABOUT ME
Salam., my name is Shine. Thank you for seeing me. I believe we are all on the same journey together to peace. I have made a conscious choice not to see differerence but to choose the moment and the grace and wisdom that is it.
My fiancée and I are spending time in Japan getting to know her family and practicing kokorow kubari (heart sharing) with whoever we are privileged to share time with.
I have spent time on lands with differerent languages and the foods and smells that follow. Now my journey is travel inside. I am learning, practicing and teaching Qi Gong, a way of life based on ancient Chinese wisdom culture and really enjoying life. I wish only love to ALL.

PHILOSOPHY
Same as above.

Music, Movies, and Books

A man once told me music is the space between sound. I like that and I like all music although I rarely listen as I don't have a device. I do choose Xavier Rudd's White Moth album if I have the chance. I've seen Forest Gump many many times and would say yes again. It's so rich. I love how his mummy says, 'your no different your the same as every body's else.' I feel she's saying we all have cravings and desires and where all on the same journey to realize this together. Book, Wellbeing Begins With You, by Yuan Tze.
