A purpose of human life, no matter who is controlling it, is to love whoever is around to be loved

About Me


** Most people, are like a falling leaf, which is blown and is turning around through the air, and wavers, and tumbles to the ground. But others, a few, are like stars, they go on a fixed course, no wind reaches them, in themselves they have their law and their course.~Siddhartha****** Summer~ * Open for change, heart full, mind at peace, accomplishing the wants, focusing on health and fitness, giving as much as possible, and appreciating each day as it comes. **Establishing my place in the universe and creating the lifestyle that empowers and strengthens all that I dream. ***Small breaths turning into small steps turning into small changes turning into big differences. ****Giving to those who need it most. *****"Do not race your heart like a horse, or you will exhaust its energy. Do not fly your heart like a bird, or you will injure its wings. Never frantically move things around just for the sake of seeing what will happen. If you move things around you dislocate them from their proper place. If you will be calm and patient, everything will come to you by itself."~ Guanzi (Writings of Master Guan) circa 26 BCE *****Travel is fatal to prejudice, bigotry, and narrow-mindedness, and many of our people need it sorely on these accounts. Broad, wholesome, charitable views of men and things cannot be acquired by vegetating in one little corner of the earth all one's lifetime. ~ Mark Twain

32 days + 17 days = a passport stamped jet lagged 31 year old

I knew I would write about this eventually. I think because it seems to be on my mind constantly right now it will do me good to let some of it out on here. Re-reading that makes it seem negative that...
