About Me

CURRENT MISSION

To love.

ABOUT ME

Oye! It's a gorgeous day, and I'm eager to learn! I'm a fire performer and an adventure seeker. In search to develop myself completely for I am a spiritual being looking for my next quest. I am here to help the awakening process by being all I can be and giving love.

PHILOSOPHY

I believe that we all have a personal goal that is no one elses but our own. I feel like many of us push that urge to complete those goals in trade for a corporate lifestyle. I feel like all religion is aimed toward the same goal and each religion refuses to accept that there are multiple ways of perceiving a direction.
I aim to learn and teach as much as I can. I hope to spark people's lives with love, and support. I also love to express myself through words and paintings. Here are a few things I wrote:

I am a fish swimming in a sea of vegetarian sharks.

This reality is of me, I am not of this reality.

One way or another, most of us usually end up finding ourselves at the bottom of a deep hole with a ladder wrapped in thorns. The only way to escape the darkness is to go through pain, but you could ease that pain by taking notice to the bright colored roses that sit upon these thorns.

The way you judge reflects on the energy you force out.

Understand the error of judgments, for it is not your place to judge another, but to grow stronger by placing that judgment on yourself.
Every thought you send out attracts 'like' energy, which strengthens the core of that very thought, then comes back to you like a boomerang. Think wisely. No thought is kept a secret from anyone. We can all sense it, even if we aren't completely confident in the assurance of what we may know. Our senses are keen.

We are all jewels in the sun, just waiting to be captured at the right angle, so that we may reflect light back out into this world.

Release your mind from the fear of not getting a return, just love.

Don't be confused by the feeling of being lost. Attempt at not trying so hard to find yourself, you are always going to be right there.

Life will never leave you to believe what you expect is going to happen. You must always dive into the river and flow along with the current. (Go with the flow.) You can try swimming upstream, but the benefits of life calmly settle in the relaxing mode of your mind.

Don't worry because then becomes a reason to worry.

Lalala, Life is a rare beat that you only hear once, and you can't seem to remember the words or how the end goes.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

By taking as much as I give for balance is needed in this world. By being balanced, I help myself and by helping myself I can help you!

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

So far the few I've met made my experience extremely pleasant. I've made a few family members already. :) I can't wait to embark on a wondrous journey!

Interests

I am extremely passionate about spinning fire poi and staff. I LOVE the river in San Marcos, or any river period. Nature is my home sweet home, I feel more at home outside then I do inside my little hunt. There's an overpowering feeling I get while exploring and finding beautiful places to sit and stare out thinking for hours and hours... Time to me does not actually exist, so I could sit there all day thinking and have the time of my life. :) I go out to camping events a lot, sort of like mini Burning Man's, Freezer Burn, Flipside, Orfunner, Art Outside, Kinetic Fire and I went to Burning Man this year.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I went cliff diving, a 50 foot drop into a river. It was so amazing! I drove to Tennessee to see my favorite band The String Cheese Incident. If that band's live performance isn't amazing, then I don't know what is.
While visiting Colorado, I found myself at the bottom of the incline. It seemed like a trillion steps up the side of a mountain. I made it all the way to the top barefoot... then half way up it was all snowy on the ground. Best challenge so far. From that experience, I learned a lot. :)

Teach, Learn, Share

I would be more than willing to teach anyone how to spin poi or staff. How to paint, or how to see deeper into their mind. I would also love to learn languages, new angles of perspective, and any skill they are passionate about. I would also love to share my knowledge and opinion on life, love, the universe, and what I have so far come to figure out.
I await the chance to learn what life has to offer. :)
