world peace is a personal thing

About Me

mama to the world's cutest snugglebugwigglebutt... student of sociology and religious studies... love satire... hate ignorance... major bookworm with little time to fall into the pages these days... sometimes silly, often introspective, ALWAYS just me...

My Interests

another time for reality to change/ careful plans rearranged/ did karma finally come to bite you in the ass/ or did that fear come to pass/ security turned out to be a lie/ a part of you finally died/ instead of mourning you close your eyes/ and through the noise in your head you realize/ the only answer is to go within/ find the peace of knowing you're about to begin/a journey of emotion, truth and justice/ the only thing that will stop you is lack of trust/ in the One that knows only love and creation/ no begining or end, no outer distraction/ past all pretense and symbolism/ beyond knowledge and altruism/ to the perfect silence that fills the soul/ conviction that you are the whole/ you open your eyes and see a new picture/ beyond meaning, technology or scripture/ dynamic balance in the original plan/ and take a step into the next phase of man... .copyright 2005 h.a. wilson

I'd like to meet:

I want to meet open minded people who want to work on changing themselves so the world will follow... if you've ever felt socially awkward, are willing to expand your perception, are pissed off at the corporate takeover of life, support our troops by wanting to bring them home from an unjust war, love music and other expressions of those parts of us that can't be held inside, or simply are curious about life---- if you identify with any of these, or maybe something i haven't thought of, i say namaste... the divine in me greets and blesses the divine in you...some cool links to check out: www.commonvision.org www.nomadsunited.com www.insidecircle.org
