About Me

I am confident enough to love who I am, because I know who I am and wise enough to know that I will never fully know. I am drawn to all that helps me grow. Beauty, Truth and Love carve out my path. I breathe the trees, and waterfalls feed me, the setting sun beams stroke me to sleep, deep dreams... awakened frequently by the wind, that sings enchanting melodies relentlessly to all that tune in. Life is my passion.

Im still trying to understand why we as a culture, protect and cherish one, and abuse, brutalize and eat the flesh of the other with no regard or respect for it's life.
