ABOUT ME

I'm all about having fun, living life and loving people.

PHILOSOPHY

To quote Ben Harper "My choice is what i choose to do, and if i'm causing no harm it shouldn't bother you. Your choice is who you choose to be, and if you're causing no harm you're alright with me."

No one knows what it's all about (life), i don't pretend to. I just want to enjoy this life i have been blessed with in the company of nice people.

DESIDERATA- if you have not read this before please take the time to now, some very wise words to help you find your way when life is getting too much:

'Go placidly amid the noise and the haste, and remember what peace there may be in silence. As far as possible without surrender be on good terms with all persons. Speak your truth quietly and clearly; and listen to others, even to the dull and the ignorant, they too have their story. Avoid loud and aggressive persons, they are vexations to the spirit.

If you compare yourself with others, you may become vain or bitter; for always there will be greater and lesser persons than yourself. Enjoy your achievements as well as your plans. Keep interested in your own career, however humble; it is a real possession in the changing fortunes of time.

Exercise caution in your business affairs, for the world is full of trickery. But let not this blind you to what virtue there is; many persons strive for high ideals, and everywhere life is full of heroism. Be yourself. Especially do not feign affection. Neither be cynical about love; for in the face of all aridity and disenchantment it is as perennial as the grass. Take kindly the counsel of the years, gracefully surrendering the things of youth.

Nurture strength of spirit to shield you in sudden misfortune. But do not distress yourself with dark imaginings. Many fears are born of fatigue and loneliness. Beyond a wholesome discipline, be gentle with yourself. You are a child of the universe, no less than the trees and the stars; you have a right to be here. And whether or not it is clear to you, no doubt the universe is unfolding as it should.

Therefore, be at peace with God, whatever you conceive Him to be. And whatever your labors and aspirations in the noisy confusion of life, keep peace in your soul. With all its sham, drudgery and broken dreams; it is still a beautiful world. Be cheerful.

Strive to be happy.' Max Ehrmann 1927

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Seen: It was our last night in Rotterdam and we were sitting next to the canal having a smoke before bed when this Canadian guy came up to us and asked for a cigarette, he said he was waiting for a couple of friends to "drop by". We got talking and told him what we were doing in Holland and where we came from etc. When we asked him, he told us he was going through europe base jumping with some friends. Tonight was his turn to be get away driver and he was waiting for his friends who had broken into one of the tall buildings next to us and were going to jump off any time now. At first we didn't really believe him but sure enough, a couple minutes later a guy came sailing past the buildings and across the canal on a parachute and a minute after that another one. Once they landed they rolled up their parachutes jumped in a car and sped away. It was incredible, like something out of an 007 movie!

Done: Climbing Mt Kilimanjaro baby!
