About Me

~I have come to the frightening conclusion that I am the decisive element. It is my personal approach that creates the climate. It is my daily mood that makes the weather. I possess tremendous power to make life miserable or joyous. I can be a tool of torture or an instrument of inspiration, I can humiliate or humor, hurt or heal. In all situations, it is my response that decides whether a crisis is escalated or de-escalated, and a person is humanized or de-humanized. If we treat people as they are, we make them worse. If we treat people as they ought to be, we help them become what they are capable of becoming~ *Goethe*
A liberated traveller, artist, research assistant of truth in healing. I've been on a spiritual journey of my own for the past 9 years, an awakening. My committment to my path and openness to where it leads me, which has led me to many places and people that have brought great lessons and truth to my own being. I am greatful. However, I live in a way that is unrestricted by the normal societal misgivings. I have seen so many profound examples of compassion, humanity, life, death, saddness, love, fear, violence, humbleness, courage and strength and in it all I have taken the time to understand and listen to every encounter. It's difficult for me to live and exist in any other manner.
I have absorbed it into my being and I take those lessons and add the element that most lack when faced with these kinds of lessons - love. I have changed my existence and have surrmounted what would have killed most in spirit. My inner child is wide awake and embracing the world that it encounters and forever seeking all the wonder that it discovers on a daily basis.
I have experienced and have been blessed to work with great religious figures, healers, intuitives, and light beings, from all over the world, and am part of the scientific exploration that has embarked on creating a normed base for energy healers (reiki, qi gong, resonance modulation...etc.) The potential is incredible for the understanding of the energies that we possess in our bodies, how we interact with the world, and with each other. What I have seen with my own eyes and have experienced within my own body is undeniable. As many who are familiar with your own body's energies and the 'paranormal' these interactions with these invisible energies and other dimensional energies do exist and scientifically are measurable. The potential is for great healing for the world and all that inhabit this planet. It is a beginning, a shift that is occurring towards a greater awakening of our selves and who we are individually. The profound potential.
I myself am merely on the verge of this understanding but have come to understand the great journey and the incredible amount of surrendering that it takes to let it become. Letting go of my ego, and letting God/creation/universe design my path. I am complexed in my simplicity, everything and nothing.

My Interests

infinite always willing to try it at least once, then I'll tell you if I'll do it again. Climbing, climbed one of those electrical towers once, freestyle, you know the red and white ones with the blinking light at the top. Yep don't need to do that again. Art, nature, anything that catches my eye - could be a blade of grass to the angle of a building against the beautiful sky full of clouds. Nothing is mundane and ordinary.

I'd like to meet:

"Song of Childhood" - (By Peter Handke): When the child was a child It walked with its arms swinging, wanted the brook to be a river, the river to be a torrent, and this puddle to be the sea. When the child was a child, it didn’t know that it was a child, everything was soulful, and all souls were one. When the child was a child, it had no opinion about anything, had no habits, it often sat cross-legged, took off running, had a cowlick in its hair, and made no faces when photographed. When the child was a child, It was the time for these questions: Why am I me, and why not you? Why am I here, and why not there? When did time begin, and where does space end? Is life under the sun not just a dream? Is what I see and hear and smell not just an illusion of a world before the world? Given the facts of evil and people. does evil really exist? How can it be that I, who I am, didn’t exist before I came to be, and that, someday, I, who I am, will no longer be who I am? When the child was a child, It choked on spinach, on peas, on rice pudding, and on steamed cauliflower, and eats all of those now, and not just because it has to. When the child was a child, it awoke once in a strange bed, and now does so again and again. Many people, then, seemed beautiful, and now only a few do, by sheer luck. It had visualized a clear image of Paradise, and now can at most guess, could not conceive of nothingness, and shudders today at the thought. When the child was a child, It played with enthusiasm, and, now, has just as much excitement as then, but only when it concerns its work. When the child was a child, It was enough for it to eat an apple, … bread, And so it is even now. When the child was a child, Berries filled its hand as only berries do, and do even now, Fresh walnuts made its tongue raw, and do even now, it had, on every mountaintop, the longing for a higher mountain yet, and in every city, the longing for an even greater city, and that is still so, It reached for cherries in topmost branches of trees with an elation it still has today, has a shyness in front of strangers, and has that even now. It awaited the first snow, And waits that way even now. When the child was a child, It threw a stick like a lance against a tree, And it quivers there still today.

Our deepest fear is not that we are inadequate. Our deepest fear is that we are powerful beyond measure. It is our light, not our darkness, that most frightens us. We ask ourselves, who am I to be bri...
