CURRENT MISSION

"And the day came when the risk to remain tight in a bud was more painful than the risk it took to blossom"

ABOUT ME

i love to be inspired. I love good conversation, music, a movie, a painting, lying in the grass, drinking wine, the ocean, sunshine. Lots of changes in my life this past year. A fresh perspective on life. Taking advantage of some "time off" to explore.

PHILOSOPHY

How you spend your days is how you spend your life. Music, Buddhism, Yoga and Nature are the closest things I have to a religious experience.
