CURRENT MISSION Taming the ever-talking voice of the mind ABOUT ME Open minded, artist, vegan. Plastic arts are one of my favorite things, which I rediscovered about a year ago, and throw me into a timeless trance. Traveling and living in a few different countries has taught me one thing: people are people and all people have something great inside them they are willing to share if you treat them with amiability and respect. PHILOSOPHY The time is now. Lead with example. Be the change you want to see in the world (good 'ol Ghandi) Other than these core beliefs, my current day-to-day focus is becoming detached from identifying myself with my thoughts (especially the trapping ones, oh those sneaky bastards). If I can't laugh at something, I must learn to laugh at it. Something scary? Let's do it!
