CURRENT MISSION

Learn, explore, play with fire, smile, music, dance, homeschool, raise amazing citizens of this world.

ABOUT ME

My husband, Nate, and I live in the country outside of Eugene. We live in a Geodesic dome with almost 3 acres. We have 2 dogs and a bunch of chickens. We love music, dancing, friends, family, new experiences, art, travel, nursing, caring for the needy however we can, and dogs. We are accommodating and often make food for our guests and give rides to local sights of interest when possible.

PHILOSOPHY

A human being is a part of the whole called by us universe, a part limited in time and space. He experiences himself, his thoughts and feeling as something separated from the rest, a kind of optical delusion of his consciousness. This delusion is a kind of prison for us, restricting us to our personal desires and to affection for a few persons nearest to us. Our task must be to free ourselves from this prison by widening our circle of compassion to embrace all living creatures and the whole of nature in its beauty. -Albert Einstein
