CURRENT MISSION

my current mission is to see and experience as much as i possibly can in my life and on my travels, learning as much as possible from new people and experiences.

ABOUT ME

I love to travel.. I've learned so much from my travel experiences, especially being in India during the 2005 tsunami. I can't see myself ever settling down. I'm considering taking a year off from school to travel but not sure. I also love school. Not sure what I'm majoring in but am way in to writing, international relations, languages, and many other things. I also play a lot of sports, the main ones being soccer and snowboarding, some ultimate frisby, mountain biking, and whatever else comes my way. I would love to learn how to surf. The ocean is my favorite place to be. I was born in Maui, so there was ocean everywhere. I have a family that also loves to travel, and friends as well. Hanging out with people from other countries is one of my favorite things to do. I always have a great time and get a chance to practice language and learn about a different way of life. Fuck yeah!!!

PHILOSOPHY

I believe that we are all here for the same ultimate reason: to achieve an enlightened state. There are those among us that have already reached that state, like Amma and the Dalai Lama, and other great leaders, and they are here to guide us. We are all, as a race, supposed to eliminate all negative tendencies in the world so that we can create a heaven on earth, and we do this by opening up to each other, creating peace, forgiving, and loving each other. I think traveling is an incredible thing because it gives us the chance to break down barriers that are separating everyone from living equally, and this is an incredible thing. Every healthy interaction you have (especially those while traveling) helps to boost the consciousness of the whole planet. We learn from each other, and then move on to share what we've learned with others, and like this, the development of human existence spreads like a wildfire.

教，学，和分享

No matter what is happening in our lives, we can always know that somewhere in the world there are people suffering more than we could imagine. When we realize this, we are much more thankful for what we have, and don't want to waste a single second of our lives doing things that don't benefit ourselves or those around us.

Amma (Mata Amritananda Mayi) is a humanitarian and spiritual teacher from India that travels the world giving hugs, teaching, and healing the world around her. She is one of the great beings of our time and people should check her out. She's literally changing the world as we know it by giving love to all beings. amma.org.. check it out

I just want to learn the unique things that everyone has to offer. Who are you? What have you done? What are you into? How do you feel about the world around you? How can we benefit each other from interacting?
