one love, one heart ♥

About Me

seeds are plantedmantras chantedfinding ones true self in the verse of love that's sung
Bathe in the rain, allow its gentle waters release the spirit locked inside you. Let the rain cleanse your inner being, your life, allow it to cover your true essences, becoming one with yourself, one with nature. Let the rain set you free.
It only takes one person, man. One person to change the world. We can all sit around and criticize and put down those who try to steer us in the right direction. But the fact is man, we don't need that energy. We need something else, something to redeem ourselves and prove to the world that we could make a difference. We can drag the earth down with negativity and soil it with litter and tear it with hate for others, or we can lift it beyond the known universe into a realm of positive vibrations with the love and affection we share with the people around us. You don't know what you've got til its gone, my friends. And man, you can sit there and cry about what you don't have, or you can look up and laugh about how lucky you are to have to things you do have. Love yourself and love the earth, and share your love with the beautiful people that surround us. It's a trip, man. But one day you'll wake up and realize you have no idea where your cards are gonna land. But listen, man. Wherever you fall there's one decision you are going to have to make. It only takes a few seconds to decide if you are going to start the fire or put it out. Take life by the hand, man. Become one with the people around you. Because that's all you've got. Material possessions are only memories of a time that pass us by. But the love of those around us is forever. Plant the seed of love in each others hearts and allow the blossom to spread throughout the garden of the heart. Cease becoming the problem my friends, for it's time to become the solution.
L'amour est tout que vous avez besoin
El amor es todo lo que usted necesita
L'amore è tutto che abbiate bisogno di
Liebe ist alle, die Sie benötigen
Love is all you need.

My Interests

love, peace, dancing, smoking, jamming, hacky sack, frisbee, hugging, kissing, touching, loving.

I'd like to meet:

Free spirits, folkies, guitarists, hippies, beautiful people, anyone who would enjoy philosophizing, anyone who would want to go to some awesome concerts with me.

Music:



Music is my refuge. It is my reason to be alive, to keep moving, to keep dancing, to keep jamming. It's always there, in so many forms, in so many places, in so many cultures. It ties our earth together, brings our people together, teaches us, creates us, forges the milestones in our lives. Live in a musical score, whether it be in a measure of 2/4 or 15/16, 3/8, whatever. My world spins in the tempo and the beat of music and there's nothing else that could replace that man. To me, music is life, and life is nothing without a soundtrack.
