About Me

The most important thing to me is my perspective on life. I value the knowledge and experiences that have shaped my soul. I tend to look at each moment from all angles watching for the opportunity that best suits me. Once I see the right chance I take it without regard for failure. I am here to succeed at what I want to do, and I keep this in mind at all times.Spiritually I believe in the power of "choice". Each day we choose the circumstances of our lives along with how we relate to them. In this "choice" lies the parody of our unique human nature; contemplating our unique nature is easily related to our life's journey. So in consideration of this fact, I make the "choice", daily, to discover myself as I continue to evolve through the experiences that shape my life.
