My Interests

~"This is my simple religion. There is no need for temples; no need for complicated philosophy.

To love, to be loved. To never forget your own insignificance. To never get used to the unspeakable violence and vulgar disparity of the life around you. To seek joy in the saddest places. To pursue beauty to its lair. To never simplify what is complicated or complicate what is simple. To respect strength, never power. Above all to watch. To try and understand. To never look away. And never, never to forget."~~*~Arundhati Roy~*~~

I'd like to meet:

~"Every time you don't follow your inner guidance, you feel a loss of energy, loss of power, a sense of spiritual deadness."~*~Shakti Gawain~* ~"To be nobody but yourself in a world which is doing its best, night and day, to make you everybody else means to fight the hardest battle which any human being can fight, and never stop fighting."~~~~*e.e.cummings*~ ~~*~~namaste~~*~~

Television:

"How could man rejoice in victory and delight in the slaughter of men?" ~~*~Lao Tzu~*~~ **** **** **** **** **** **** **** **** **** **** ~"Oh Beautiful for smoggy skies, insecticided grain, For strip mined mountain's majesty above the asphalt plain.
