CURRENT MISSION
To shed the lethargy imposed on me by society!
ABOUT ME
I am a fun, adventurous, flexible, out-going, deep-thinking free spirit.
PHILOSOPHY
I am a long time member of the Baha'i Faith. From it I have learned to be a kinder, more loving person. I understand the unity of all religions, and the unity of all peoples. "The earth is but one country, and mankind its citizens."
