About Me

Some people say I'm 'too alive'... I'll accept that, as a compliment.

THE WAY I SEE IT:
The universe rewards risk takers......Fortune rewards the brave.......Scare yourself! Do something that surprises you or takes you out of your comfort zone every day........
If you always come from a place of self amusement, your world will be a lot more enjoyable :-)........This is your adventure, choose your own.......Spontaneity is thrilling and oh so fruitful.......
Compliments are free gifts, for both the giver and the receiver.......
Enjoy the journey, there is no 'good' or 'bad'.. it's all enrichening so try to enjoy the adventure.........Respect the balance of giving and receiving........
In every moment there is a lesson, look out for it, as learning and growing is progressing.........
Always try to look at things from other perspectives........There is no wrong or right, as everything 'wrong' in the long run is really 'right' and for your highest good.......
Try to be as unconditional as possible, there should be no conditions on your love and friendship, as ultimately everybody is perfect just the way they are.......Trust the universe implicitly. You are supported and protected. Parachute. Surrender. Let go. Scream weeeeeeeee!!! in joy the whole way and know without a doubt that you'll land right where you are supposed to..........It is only an illusion that you do not have what you want.........Say after me: I am open and receptive to all of the abundance in the universe!.........
Instead of seeing the rug being pulled from under you, why not learn to dance on a shifting carpet? ...........Who ever you are and whatever you are doing some kind of excellence is within your reach........Fear is not of the present, but only of the past and future, which does not exist.........Fear: The best way out is through.........
Nothing can hurt you unless you give it the power to do so........
You create your own reality........
The way that you react or respond to any situation is your choice, nobody can 'make you' feel a certain way........Listen.........
Be responsible for yourself, if you feel like you need to apologise for something, then do it.........
Karma can be one tough mutha but you gotta try to learn to love, acknowledge and respect her, if not, I've no doubt she'll remind you........
There are many ways of delivering the same message, you can always tell the truth but with grace, I find it is much more productive to be kind than to be cruel or irresponsible with your words... treat unto others. e.g. "Your bass player sucks and you are the most boring live band I've ever seen" = "Have you guys thought of playing around with the live set a bit more? Dressing up, dancing, jumping? That could be fun, I guess the more you play live the easier that stuff comes, you should try xxxxx etc! So, how long has your bass player been with you? Wow, he/she must have a hard time keeping up with the amazing talent and flow that the rest of you so clearly have, has he/she ever had lessons?" - With me? Same message. Truth.........................................
and finally, to quote:
Luke Steele - Dance for everyone on your mind & I'm sorry for you if there's logic in your love........................
Bob Marley - Life is one big road with lots of signs. So when you riding through the ruts, don't complicate your mind. Flee from hate, mischief and jealousy. Don't bury your thoughts, put your vision to reality . Wake Up and Live!........................
Ben Lee - Awake is the new sleep, so wake up and do it. Whatever it is............................
Dappled Cities Fly - Please, go on, take a chance and be romantic........................
Old Man River - It's true, it's true if you believe it........................
Gomez: Even the royal mail can't deliver us from what we got in to..........................
Michael Hutchence - Live baby, live. (Ironic? Sure, Wise? Definitely).......................
Jim Morrison - She dances in a ring of fire then throws off the challenge with a shrug...............................................
Jeff Buckley - Grace is what matters. In anything. Especially life, especially growth, tragedy, pain, love, death. About people, that's what matters. That's a quality I admire very greatly. It keeps you from reaching for the gun too quickly; it keeps you from destroying things too foolishly; it sort of keeps you alive and keeps you open for more understanding.
