Happiness is not a state to arrive at, but a manner of traveling.

About Me

“When others demand that we become the people they want us to be, they force us to destroy the person we really are. It's a subtle kind of murder. The most loving parents and relatives commit this murder with smiles on their faces.” - Jim Morrison»-(¯..v..¯)-» Design your MySpace with MyLook «-(¯..v..¯)-«

My Interests
