About Me

I am honestly interested in growing and expanding in new directions, to new heights, and diving to new depths. I feel that we each need to take more responsibility. For our own actions and for our involvement in community. I seek to be a better communicator and know that I can trust my heart to be my guide. I want to live this life fully, exist spiritually and love unconditionally.I edited my profile with Thomas Myspace Editor V4.4 (www.strikefile.com/myspace)
