About Me

I have found the paradox that if I love until it hurts, then there is no more hurt but ONLY LOVE (m.teresa) "The only things that you can count on keepin is what you think inside your own head." (Deborah Smith) "When we love, we always strive to become better than we are. When we strive to become better than we are, everything around us becomes better too." (The Alchemist, 1988) ....i am an idealist... i liken myself to vanilla or salt. tasty alone, but much better at waking up others' flavors... there are no curtains, tints, drapes or disguises on the windows to my soul so if you really wanna know about me, take a look!

My Interests

MUSE-ik ~food ~greens growin aka LIFE ~ laughter ~ giving mahalos ~moments of divine intimacy, touching souls... ~ the healing touch ~moving I-ditation ~swimming like a fish~ ~ ~ ~unity Standards I mostly live by (except for waking up at dawn): (yeah, the music is a little cheesy but the I-deas are right on!...)

I'd like to meet:

People of great love and respect for the human race. Daring, courageous, creative, supportive women of substance... The all-seeing eye in the sky.... What stories it would have...HOSPITABLE FOLKS. REAL PEOPLE, not like the kind you see on MTV :P People who are interested in what I have to say and have something to say themselves. Oh, and anyone with a cute puppy or a helicopter license! ;)

Music:

sets me free! "If you aint old school, you done missed it!" Current favorites? Anything Chiquis is playing or sends me. Badu. The Gladiators. Hepcat for hiking. Alton Ellis for those midnite, candlelit baths. Singers who make you feel them like Billie Holiday and Johnny Cash. Reggae. Jazz. Ska. Salsa/Cumbia/Merengue/Latin. Some hip hop (not booty club kine, thanx). Some rock/folk/jam bands. And yes, some country too. All music live and local. I have a soft spot for harmonies and acoustic instruments.

Movies:

AMELIE, Chocolat, Big Fish/Tim Burton, Rockers, The New World, LOTR & Star Wars Trilogies, Akira Kurosawa's Dreams, Baraka, Step Into Liquid/ Endless summers/ YoungUns/ surf flix= PURELY INSPIRATIONAL!, Hitchhikers Guide to the Galaxy, Microcosmos & the like, Carribbean Nights The Bob Marley Story, Charlie Chaplin ... Historical Fiction. Adventure. Comedy that doesn't degrade. The visually stunning. Classics. Foreign. Yeah.

Television:

nah. Life is interesting enough for me. Numbs the skull, so when in that mood I gotta be chucklin to some comedy or cozying up with family values type stuff like the George Lopez show, TLC (Little People!), Nick at Nite...cheesy stuff :-D

Books:

Romance novels and books on tape are my new favorites :D Autobiography of a Yogi. Paulo Coelho. Harry Potter books on tape, narrated with British accents. Positive, inspiring books and new health stuff. Research studies. Books about hiking trails and yoga... History. Whatever I finds, I reads. Currently reading: Edgar Cayce Biography, and looking for something else to read. Any suggestions? Loan me something!

Heroes:

courageous fuckers with loud laughs! Parents and caregivers. People living off the land. Anyone making the best of what they've got. People I don't understand. Musicians. Whoever can ace my test:
Create your own Friend Test here"I've learned that you shouldn't go through life with a catcher's mitt on both hands; you need to be able to throw something back. Maya Angelou" ....people who throw something back!
