About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Meet, greet, feed, eat, treat sweet, good people, happy times!!

ABOUT ME

Trying not to treat life too seriously, just enjoying seeking pleasure in the simple things. Looking forward to future travels and also catching up with as many of you people as possible!! So many ideas and lifestyles are up in the air at the moment and i am enjoying my new found freedoms. I enjoy not knowing what the future will hold, and treat everyday like another page in the book.

PHILOSOPHY

" Die slowly"...By Pablo Neruda.....

He who becomes the slave of habit, who follows the same routes every day, who never changes pace, who does not risk and change the color of his clothes, who does not speak and does not experience, dies slowly.

He or she who shuns passion, who prefers black on white, dotting ones "i's" rather than a bundle of emotions, the kind that make your eyes glimmer, that turn a yawn into a smile, that make the heart pound in the face of mistakes and feelings, dies slowly.

He or she who does not turn things topsy turvy, who is unhappy at work, who does not risk certainty for uncertainty, to thus follow a dream, those who forego sound advice at least once in their lives, dies slowly.

He who does not travel, who does not read, who does not listen to music, who does not find grace in herself, dies slowly.

He who slowly destroys his own self esteem, who does not allow himself to be helped, who spends days on end complaining about his own bad luck, about the rain that never stops, dies slowly.

He or she who abandon a project before starting it, who fail to ask questions on subjects he does'nt know, he or she who don't reply when they are asked something they do know, die slowly.

Let's try and avoid death in small doses, reminding oneself that being alive requires an effort far greater than the simple fact of breathing. Only a burning patience will lead to the attainment of a splendid happiness.
