About Me

Qian Yun/Heavens Cloud my Dharma name~painted by Rev. YaoMost can only shake their heads at me and quite frankly I don’t blame them..;)..I may say one thing but mean another..I’m sometimes forgetful..I may ask the same question a few times..I rarely see the obvious..and I can do some of the silliest things. I believe it’s the “Yoga Mode” I walk around in, which is pretty much, “Whateverland”. I think this keeps my life simple, as it should be, even though I know it drives others bonkers. ;) lol. Life should be F.U.N., so try not to be so serious! I am a Yogi and a Buddhist. Both are showing me how to let go of attachments and just be a loving and compassionate person. I still have a long ways to go, but I’m getting there. At the present moment I’m working on opening and listening to my heart. Its working because I recently made a rather HUGE decision in my life that blind sided me on a Wed evening, only to have a complete stranger tell that the decision I just made, amongst other things, was the right one. Yea, I know, crazy huh? I’m still trying to recover..lol Before I go, I would like to give a shout out to Rev. Yao, he pretty much ROCKS!! ;) The End. Namaste
