About Me

Step out of your confort zone! There are some ppl out there who don't even have the luxury of life. **Raquel**
"The journey of a thousand miles starts with a single step". ~Chinese Proverb~
A man who has a beautiful soul always has some beautiful things to say, but a man who says beautiful things does not necessarily have a beautiful soul. ~Confucius~What a strange illusion it is to suppose that beauty is goodness. ~Tolstoy~Do not brood over your past mistakes and failures, as this will only fill your mind with grief, regret and depression. Do not repeat them in the future. ~Swami Sivananda~
No one can ever gain strength by brooding over his weakness. ~Paramananda~
"Let me light my lamp", says the star, "and never debate if it will help to remove the darkness” ~Rabindranath Tagore~True religion is real living; living with all one's soul, with all one's goodness and righteousness." ~Albert Einstein~
You are here, to enable the world, To live more amply, With greater vision and with a fierce spirit of hope and achievement, You are here to enrich the world. ~ Woodrow Wilson

Movies:

Yes, I've been to the movies... many times... Here's a pic from one of my favorite movies and a quote from it:

Television:

My opinion in regards to TV, hell, it sucks! It is the reason why Americans live in fear of everything. Turn this shit OFF and look out your window or grab a book. In Spain it's called "la caja tonta"= the stupid box, bec it talks even when no one is listening...

Heroes:

Ghandi, Tiradentes, Malcolm X, Mother Theresa, Che Guevara, He-Man (let's just agree to disagree) "Hasta la Vitoria!" Che "Let the world change you and you can change the world" Che
