Happiness does not mean absence of problems. There has never been, nor will there ever be, a life free of problems. It is not the presence of problems but how we tackle them that determines the quality of our lives.
"You fasten the triggers
For the others to fire
Then you set back and watch
When the death count gets higher
You hide in your mansion
As young people's blood
Flows out of their bodies
And is buried in the mud"
~Bob Dylan~ Masters of War
I AM A ReCyClEd TeEnAgEr!
I am a lover of LIFE...we are here together and I imagine that if we could fly and went way way up in the sky and looked down on our earth we would understand that it is the way that it is suppose to be and that we could never survive separate of each other no matter what a pain in the ass some of us are. I know that I can be a BIG ONE, but I am fortunate enough to have the unconditional love of my family and friends that I have loved in numberless forms, numberless times, in life after life, in age after age, forever. So lets all ENJOY ourselves while we are here for the endurance however long that is...the race is not given to the swift or to the strong...but to he that endures to the end. Remember, we all stumble, every one of us. That’s why it's a comfort to go hand in hand. So with that said my philosophy is to "Dream as if you'll live forever, live as if you'll die today." ~ James Dean ~

I am a GARDENER...
If we could see the miracle of a single flower clearly, our whole life would change....I love and I relate to gardening. Life is a GARDEN. We plant our seeds and watch them GROW. If the seeds are nurtured, a beautiful miracle happens, and beauty unfolds..not easily, mind you, because life is about pulling out the weeds and tending the garden everyday and planting seeds good intention...
It is every man's obligation to put back into the world at least the equivalent of what he takes out of it.
-Albert Einstein-
I am a friend...
When you dig another out of their troubles,
You find a place to bury your own...I love to meet people and learn what they are about..we are all so unique and we are all stars shining brightly our indiviual essence. I love to be surrounded by creative people that are okay with who they are and don't feel the need to engulf the environment with arrogance and abrasiveness...my least favorite features!
I am Spiritual...
There are two ways of spreading light:
To be the candle or the mirror that reflects it...
When I do good, I feel good...When I do bad, I feel bad...And that's my religion. - Abraham Lincoln
True religion is real living; living with all one's soul, with all one's goodness, all one's honesty. - Albert Einstein
I have this amazing part of me that understands my Divine connection and feeling of incredibleness but on the other hand I have to take out the stinky trash. So I do it celebrating the idea that I have some kind of excess that can be tossed… I recognize the divine in you...recognize the divine in me...enlighten me but don't try to CONVERT me into something you believe because the way I see it, we all Believe and we all Hope. I have my God and I have my own personal demons to exorcise just as you do. I believe that we basically go it alone - we are born alone and we die alone, so it is necessary to be comfortable in your own skin. There is only one journey. Going inside yourself. In this life we have the influence that the universe provides us with – individuals and incidents that color our existence. We are all here to accomplish different things. I invite any one of you to be of influence on my life as I hope that I influence yours!
I have Faith...
Each day comes bearing its own gifts.
Untie the ribbons...
And I work hard...If you want to have what you have not, you must do what you do not. I have to believe that we are all in a learning mode and a teaching mode. I am either doing one or the other - always. Awareness of our intentions is essential, whether taking a long drag off a cigarette, getting behind the wheel of a car, or teaching a child about morals. We have to be conscious of what we translate - inside and outside.."A human being is part of a whole, called by us the Universe, a part limited in time and space. He experiences himself, his thoughts and feelings, as something separated from the rest - - a kind of optical delusion of his consciousness. This delusion is a kind of prison for us, restricting us to our personal desires and to affection for a few persons nearest us. Our task must be to free ourselves from this prison by widening our circles of compassion to embrace all living creatures and the whole of nature in its beauty.â€
Albert Einstein (1879-1955)
