About Me

CURRENT MISSION

to feel the world's vibes from many peoples eyes.

ABOUT ME

i think you can say i'm open minded and easy going ,
am really into life, physically and mentally and in a less dramatic way i enjoy living and hope to get as much out of it even if sometimes its by doing nothing.
hope ill get better at being a human-monkey.

PHILOSOPHY

live and let live , quote by bill hicks( comedian and thinker ) :It's just a ride, and we can change it any time we want. It's only a choice. No effort, no work, no job, no savings and money, a choice, right now, between fear and love. The eyes of fear want you to put bigger locks on your door, buy guns, close yourself off. The eyes of love instead see all of us as one. I'm gonna share with you a vision that I had, cause I love you. And you feel it. You know all that money we spend on nuclear weapons and defence each year, trillions of dollars, correct? Instead... just play with this... if we spent that money feeding and clothing the poor of the world, and it would pay for it many times over, not one human being excluded and we can explore space together, both inner and outer, forever, in peace.

i have to admit im not a good reader every once in a while i challenge myself with a book and i would like to be better at it i find its important.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

as i said simply being born is no easy task had to build itself on million years of evolution or a god witch is even crazier , a part from that , well i'll make it short , but i was discovering django Reinhardt(famous gypsy jazz musicien from the 30's) by a woody allen film and few days after i was going to france with a guitar for learning this style without any knowledge of how and where , when searching the internet i found a video from the 70's of some french dude , some research and find out that this fella is still alive and kicking and is one of the known gypsy guitar player of the style still around, and that he is organizing a class, soon i became friend of he's son who invited me to see other concerts helped me out on finding places and events and introduce me to the greats of the style, once i attended a conversation about the great django, i saw how much energy and imagination the guy represent for them, i met some other friends who shared the same path with me and am even writing this message from one of them right now, one year later.
hope its sound exciting anyway for me it was very much.
