ABOUT ME

"...in recent weeks (she'd) had the feeling (she) could not wait much longer, because (her) destiny was rapidly coming to its end and (she) must do everything to make it perfect and beautiful." - Milan Kundera, The Book of Laughter and Forgetting

i'm a life-clinic/ soul rehabilitation advocate. art is the cure.
art is mobilizing the gray matter. i want to mobilize, be mobilized, be affected - GOD! do i want to be affected by people, by art, by love, by the goodness that is inherent within us - the brilliance that surpasses the effability of words. people are good. and i want to spread the gospel of it.

PHILOSOPHY

people need people. it's the zenith of life to love, be loved, and to feel in full the world that's constantly moving.

Interests
