I am here for Friends

About Me

Sometimes it's what you don't do that makes you who you are. "How far you go in life depends on your being tender with the young, compassionate with the aged, sypathethic with the striving, and tolerant of the weak and the strong. Because someday in life you will have been all of those." If by chance I find myself in an ocean, I prefer to be a wave not just a ripple. It's either the world change me or the other way around. Sounds idealisitic? Not at all. You see, some believe that a gentle flapping of a butterfly's wings can produce a storm at the other side of the world. I have a purpose to fulfill. Never in the history of mankind has existed exactly like me or will ever exist exactly the same as I am. I am unique. I have to live life to the fullest because i have the power within to do it. Yet, my life will always be an unfinished symphony until it reaches it's grand finale in the orchestra of the Divine Ensemble. .

My Interests

I'd like to meet:

It doesn't interest me what you do for a living. I want to know what you ache for, and if you dare to dream of meeting your heart's longing. It doesn't interest me how old you are. I want to know if you will risk looking like a fool for love, for your dream, for the adventure of being alive. It doesn't interest me what planets are squaring your moon. I want to know if you have touched the center of your own sorrow, if you have been opened by life's betrayals or have become shriveled and closed from fear of further pain. I want to know if you can sit with pain, mine or your own, without moving to hide it or fade it or fix it. I want to know if you can be with joy, mine or your own, if you can dance with wildness and let the ecstacy fill you to the tips of your fingers and toes without cautioning us to be careful, to be realistic, to remember the limitations of being human. It doesn't interest me if the story you are telling me is true. I want to know if you can disappoint another to be true to yourself; if you can bear the accusation of betrayal and not betray your own soul; if you can be faithless and therefore trustworthy. I want to know if you can see beauty, even when it's not pretty, every day, and if you can source your own life from its presence. I want to know if you can live with failuer, yours or mine, and still stand on the edge of the lake and shout to the silver of the full moon, "Yes!" It doesn't interest me to know where you live or how much money you have. I want to know if you can get up, after the night of grief and despair, weary and bruised to the bone, and do what needs to be done to feed the children. It doesn't interest me who you know or how you came to be here. I want to know if you will stand in the center of the fire with me and not shrink back. It doesn't interest me where or what or with whom you have studied. I want to know what sustains you, from the inside, when all else falls away. I want to know if you can be alone with yourself and if you truly like the company you keep in the empty moments.

Music:

funeral for a friend - walk away

Movies:

" I am no one special, just a common man with common thoughts. I've lived a common life. There are no monuments dedicated to me, and my name will soon be forgotten. But in one respect I have succeeded as gloriously as anyone who ever lived. I've loved another with all my heart and soul, and for me, that has always been enough."- from THE NOTEBOOKOur 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 brilliant, gorgeous,talented and fabulous? Actually, who are you not to be? You are a child of God. Your playing small does not serve the world. There is nothing enlightened about shrinking so that other people won't feel insecure about you. We were born to manifest the glory of God that is within us. It's not just in some of us; it's in everyone. And as we let our own light shine, we unconsciously give other people permission to do the same. As we are liberated from our own fear, our presence automatically liberates others

Television:

comedic sitcoms & reality shows... ahihihihihihihi

Books:

..This profile was edited with MySpace Profile Editor'Make the most of your strengths and acknowledge your weaknesses, that way you make the most of yourself as a person'Dream what you want to dream; go where you want to go; be what you want to be, because you have only one life and one chance to do all the things you want to do.Work like you don't need the money, love like you've never been hurt, and dance like you do when nobody's watching. ;-)YOU'LL NEVER DISCOVER NEW OCEAN, UNLESS U HAVE THE COURAGE 2 LOOSE SIGHT OF THE SHORE

Heroes:

Some people come into our lives and quickly go. Some people move our souls to dance. They awaken us to new understanding with the passing whisper of their wisdom. Some people make the sky more beautiful to gaze upon. They stay in our lives for awhile, leave footprints on our hearts, and we are never ever the same.

INTRODUCTION

  "Who am i again? Remind me!" I'm lost in the maze of my imagination. I'm a puzzle waiting to be complete. I'm blinded by the brightness of my life. And still I question myself... ? I smile ...
