About Me


An important quote for our times from -Mark Twain-
"In the beginning of a change, the patriot is a scarce man, brave, hated, and scorned.
When his cause succeeds however, the timid join him, for then it costs nothing to be a patriot."
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ ~~~~~~~~
"A "human rights revolution" must be waged on a global scale, since a denial of rights anywhere is a denial of rights everywhere." - Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ ~~~~~~~~
"Facts do not cease to exist because they are ignored."

"The vast majority of human beings dislike and even dread all notions with which they are not familiar. Hence, it comes about that at their first appearance, innovators have always been divined as fools and madmen."
- Aldous Huxley
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ ~~~~~~~~
"Great spirits have always encountered violent opposition from mediocre minds"
- Einstien
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ ~~~~~~~~
"All tyranny needs to gain a foothold is for people of good conscience to remain silent."
- Thomas Jefferson
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ ~~
"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 brilliant, gorgeous, talented, and fabulous?
Actually, who are you not to be? You are a child of God.
Your playing small doesnt serve the world.
There is nothing enlightened about shrinking so that other people will not feel insecure around you.
We were born to make manifest the glory of God that is within us.
It is not in just some of us; it is 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."
- Nelson Mandella, Inaugural Speech 1994
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ ~~~~~~~
"I went to the woods because I wished to live deliberately,
to front only the essential facts of life.
And see if i could not learn what it had to teach
and not, when I came to die, discover that I had not lived at all."
- Henry David Thoreau ~ I kinda like him
I believe in magic. I believe in the power of intention. In the ability to make manifest the passions of our desires. I believe in the driving force behind every action i choose. I believe in the momentum of thought upon reality. I believe in me.
M
There is but a new system of family created for this time.
A necessity carved out of need.
That just because one is bread into this world
does not mean that this is the only family one should have.
And sometimes this blood one does not need to exist at all.
A structure that is chosen seems almost more intense and real than one that is by birth.
My family is one that is both by choice as well as birth
so happens that I am happy with the one that I was borne into
and am also lucky enough to have one that has chosen me
and I have chosen back; my friends and my kitties.
The ones that see me laughing, singing and dancing all the time
and the ones that know my sadness and have seen me cry as well are the best creation I know.
A world express with emotion
and truth
and tolerance.
