About Me

..

"It's time to break through the barriers of “comfort” and shine like there’s no tomorrow --and the point is to live with that possibility in mind, freely express who we are and shine, comfortably."

Anne
Ransom

Write me an ocean
Full of light
And we'll float
Under golden waves
And over
Again

I can almost feel you
Breathing pure
Wading
And wishing
We could fly

Yet there's no where to be
But here
And here

We are weightless
And we are
Free

My Interests

I'd like to meet:


"The poet makes himself a seer by a long, prodigious, and rational disordering of all the senses. Every form of love, of suffering, of madness; he searches himself, he consumes all the poisons in him, and keeps only their quintessences"- ARTHUR RIMBAUD

"You see, in the final analysis, it is all between you and God; it was never between you and them anyway.." -Mother Teresa of Calcutta

"Your task is not to seek for love, but merely to seek and find all the barriers within yourself that you have built against it" Rumi

It is one of those beautiful compensations of this life that no one can sincerely try to help another without helping himself.— Ralph Waldo Emerson
Not everything that is faced can be changed, but nothing can be changed until it is faced ~ James Baldwin
“Beliefs separate. Loving thoughts unite” ~ Paul Ferrini
In the attitude of silence the soul finds the path in a clearer moonlight, and what is elusive and deceptive resolves itself into crystal clearness. ~Mahatma Gandhi

"We who lived in concentration camps can remember the men who walked through the huts comforting others, giving away their last piece of bread. They may have been few in number, but they offer sufficient proof that everything can be taken from a man but one thing: the last of the human freedoms--to choose one's attitude in any given set of circumstances, to choose one's own way." Viktor E.Frankl
